    does spelunking help in finding cummingtonite?

    Efficient spelunking requires a highly trained partner you can count on when things get hard... so yes, I'm sure it does.

    I believe fracking is an appropriate way to get cummingtonite.

    Hard-core fracking is the fastest way to get cummingtonite, that is for sure...

    as much as i'd like to take my good old time finding it, you know, enjoy the experience and all that....most times it just shows up way before I expect it.

    I don't mean to brag about the Gem State or anything, but cummingtonite is guaranteed if you are looking in Idaho.
    is there a certain technique to guarantee you find cummingtonite when looking for it?


    What you need is the right sized sluice box...

    You have to be careful though, the secret spot of the cummingtonite motherlode is in the midst of Idaho's most voracious cougars.
    I heard it's not the sized of the sluice box...but the manner in which it is used.
    Idaho has cougars? I thought they only prowled the east coast?

    I can't tell you exactly where to find them. You have to be willing to do some of the work Will or there will be no cummingtonite for you. :nono:

    According to Wiki:

    Cummingtonite has a cleavage property of "good on"

    Ya don't say.

    is it better to find it whilst standing, getting on your knees, or laying on your back?
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    sometimes you have to bend over to find it

    but if I'm bending over, is it easier to be on my knees, or to keep standing?

    I would suggest trying both...cummingtonite can be hard to find and you might need to look for it from different angles

    :think: almost sounds like too much work...is it really worth it?

    If I find it, will I make money? Can a picture of it make me money?
