Do This to Any Ugly River Rock — It Tells You if Gems Are Inside, Every Time

The Rockhound's Compass — the full system for reading ground instead of chasing coordinates: https://therockhoundscompass.com/ Most people work a gravel bar the same way: pick up whatever looks interesting, carry it home, and find out weeks later that it was nothing. There's a faster way. One cheap thing in your pocket sorts every rock on that bar into two piles in about two seconds each — the ones that came out of the right kind of ground, and the ones that never will. In this one I show you exactly what to do, why it works on some rock and not on others, what a good result actually looks like compared to a false one, when to check a stone wet and when dry, and the handful of rocks that pass the test and still aren't worth carrying. It won't tell you a stone is full of gems. It'll tell you whether it's even in the family that carries them — and that alone will cut what you haul home by half.
