Fluorescent Mineral
Collecting Sites
IMPORTANT: Mineral localities
listed on this website are not necessarily open for collecting. Some are
fee sites, open only on specific days of the week; some are active mines;
and some have irate owners who do not take kindly to trespassers. Find out
who owns the property and whether they allow collecting before you go
pounding on any rocks. Those foolish enough to trespass on posted land or
enter active mines or quarries without permission endanger themselves and
may cause the permanent closure of that site.
