John Cornish is a mineral dealer who digs up some wonderful crystals in Idaho every year. What he is digging is pockets of ancient gas bubbles that were frozen in the ground as the earth cooled. The gases inside these pockets formed crystals on the walls and now thousands of years later, John Cornish is digging them up for you!
So, come with us on a tour of his room at the 2007 Tucson Gem and Mineral show, at the Inn Suites show, right off the I-10 and Saint Mary's in Tucson Arizona!
In the film you will hear us (Brandy and Justin) along with John and the man from ICMinerals.com

Come with us on a short visit to the Tucson Gem Show, which takes up 3 weeks during January and Feb every year.
Here we look at a tent with Selenite cleavages (Not even crystals, but broken ones...) glued into a base of rocks and cement. Ick!
Then, we show you some lab grown bright GREEN Quartz from China that the same dealer was selling as natural!
