Coop's Collectors section of Missouri to Colorado Rocks, Minerals & Fossils!

I have almost lived all my life in missouri!

but for a few years in the army at fort hood, texas and in the Northeastern area of Austin, Texas! and then there was some time in south Carolina.

i am a collector of all kinds of things when comes to missouri’s hidden wonders of rocks, minerals, fossils and then there missouri's semi-precious gemstones: from quartz crystals to calcite to high grades of cherts & flints. and then there the areas that you can collect some good to semi-gemstone quality of onyx and then there are the copper replaced minerals to hematite and to other missouri hidden grades of very nice
semi-precious rocks/gemstones.

missouri even has some nice petrified wood collecting areas.

i am just now in the last two to three years, re-building my collections of minerals and gemstone. my favorite gemstone is turquoise and my favorite rock-mineral is missouri’s mozarkite!
