In 'Rockhound: An Experience of the North', rock and mineral collectors
will read about the experience of collecting rocks, minerals, crystals
and gemstones in Ontario, in particular, the area around Bancroft and up
towards Cobalt and Gowganda. Rockhound focuses primarily on how to find
specific minerals and collectors are led to world class deposits and
instructed in recovery techniques and basic gem and mineral
identification. Thick pine forests, abandoned gold mines, stunning gem
seams and ghost towns are all part of the northern rockhound experience.
