Why Are There 96,000,000 Red Gems on This Beach? – Again?
Why Are There 96,000,000 Red Gems on This Beach? – Again?
In search of more red gemstones, I searched this river beach full of gemstones looking for the perfect gem quality garnet. What I found was mind blowing. Millions upon millions of red garnets. I collect these garnets to sell to collectors. In this video I explain why people would want these garnets, how I collect the garnets, and show off not only the amazing garnets, but also the amazing views, and find some garnets still in the host rock as well.

Beautiful !!!
Hello, I wanted to know what’s the best way to access this creek, how long does it take to get to the creek from harrison and what is the FSR like?
You must love spending time there Dan, the scenery is just stunning…so beautiful.
Dan, I have always loved the deep red of a fine garnet, so glad you shared this video with us.

Hello to you too
Ah, the caviar of the sea.
Dan, what do you do with the garnets? Sell them to jewelry makers or for industrial uses?
I wonder what makes garnets.
Love thecgarnet video. Keep up the great work
How much $$$ you have made from it
Nice❤
Makes me want to try to find a good cluster here in juneau Alaska
Omg soooo beautiful river
I know water jets use garnets to cut the materials
it must have taken you years to count 96 million of them, did you call them Gurnets lol
They look like pomegranates.
will you be making + spell power or attack power gems out of those garnets? xD
strange beacuse where i used to pan, it was black sapphires
they look like fish roes when lumped together.
Wow amazing
I would love to garnet harvest!
This is new to me. I never knew panning garnets was a thing.
Is there any gold in there?
I wish I could go prospecting again with my uncle. I’m a good swimmer so I can find some good hidden nuggets in the river. While my unkle would sit in shade an pan the sand while I swim round and explored like an otter. Loads of fun.
But last time we went out we got robbed at gunpoint. Some guy took *everything* we found over our weekend camp out.
He took *everything* of any worth, threw our phones into the river and slashed our tires on his way out. Kinda killed the wonder for us.
i saw yellow garnets
This looks so fun! Your enthusiasm really makes your videos entertaining. I remember when I was little in the late 1960’s my family went on vacation in Colorado. We went up to Central City and learned about the silver and gold mines and saw a demonstration of panning. So your videos drip nostalgia for me. While my disability prevents me from going on prospecting adventures, it is great fun watching you, and learning new things as you are prospecting.
Can you melt these down to make larger stones?
Amazing, my friend
Well tell us were you find them ? Would you old man
that river is so pretty.
Is this area open to the public? Do you think a person could come up from Washington State and see Garnet beach one day and BC picture Stone the next day ??
Suddenly craving Nerds candy.
Love this video! When I lived on the shore of Lake Erie, in NE Ohio, I would would often see bands of red garnet and black magnetite sand on the beach. A mixture of water worn sand grains in shades of pink,red and sometimes a green grain. The magnetite was also water worn but sometimes had sharper edges.
Beautiful ❤️
I think the more important question should be, "why the hell do I care?"
I’m January edition of an Anglo-Saxon and to me this place is just a magical /mystical land ! Wowzer indeed .
Just got my bag of Garnet sand to sort through! Very excited.
Gak bisa. Ga peduli ! .ga bisa ya ga bisa !

Garnets are super hard and dense, so they are often used for sandpaper.
Can I?
