Rockhounding New Mexico

A Complete Guide to Finding, Collecting, and Preparing the State's Gems & Minerals

More than a third of New Mexico is public land that holds untold quantities of mineralogical treasure. With this book anyone can learn where to find unusual mineral displays, fossils, jasper, agate, and petrified wood – not to mention more obsidian than one rockhound could possibly collect in a lifetime. An outstanding resource for experts and novices alike, Rockhounding New Mexico points the way to 140 of the state's best rockhounding sites, including popular and commercial areas as well as lesser-known sites on public land.

Look inside to find:

Maps and detailed site descriptions with directions and GPS coordinates

Suggested tools and techniques
Land-use regulations and legal restrictions
Contact information for land managers
Additional information on rock shops, attractions, and local history
