the ugly surface is actually a survival mechanism for the rock so that no predators break into it

[exploreseafaring]

It must be a pretty nice feeling opening up the stone and see the inside be illuminated by the sun for the first time in millions of years.

[Jake-upog]

It was interesting enough seeing him spilt a giant rock in half but that inside was incredible

[heatherred]

That literally looks like a river with an embankment and rocks and everything. That's awesome

This guy survived the Oregon Trail and now hes a rich prospector. What a success story.

[bluemeiko]

I've never heard a rock person sound more like a rock person.

[SWISS-]

He played that rock beautifully. Musical masterpiece.

[fireredgaming]

“What music type do you like?”
“Rock”
“Oh”
“Not that rock, this rock”

[CheZGamesOfficial]

The first couple of hits he does sounds like getting gems on an app game lol..

[dartheleven]

"Damn it Marie, they're minerals!"

[youngarchaeotech]

Geologist: “I’ve finally done it! After fifty four years of searching, THE MEGA SAPHI-“

Quartz: “sup” :)

[happyinhilo]

The sped up pounding on the shims was the best laugh I've had in a while!

[John--cuyu]

Love to see it flattened out and polished so it looks like a cutaway of a boulder with the visible layers

[curtcoeurdelion]

It’s the Heart of the Mountain!

THE ARKENSTONE ! ! !

[brianlanders]

What's it called? The blue kind of looks like turquoise. It is beautiful.

[yordecoolbruh]

when he said "oww yeah" my dad came into fckn room

[dangbear]

i'm a simple man. i see beautifully colored stone ore, my brain makes the good chemicals.

[lordawesometony]

I’d like to admire life the same way Dan admired that stone.

[TonyTooTuff]

Everyone: There’s nothing in that ugly rock.

This guy: Hold my water bottle.

[Samuel-kuqb]

This was what my great grandma did, we’ve got loads of beautiful gems because of it!
And I’ve been nerding out about geology ever since I could read the Gem & Mineral books we owned thanks to her🤓
