This website or the contributor can't guarantee the information here to be accurate or to be up-to-date, although that is the intention for the data. Illegal activity or property damage is not the responsibility of this website, but each visitor is encouraged to review the Rockhound Code of Ethics. Each website visitor is advised also to consider reference sources listed and outside sources in their research before visiting the location.
Location Type: Public Access
Details:

You can find Glaucophane, barite, Diatomaceous Earth, gypsum crystals, calcite cubes, and crossite here.  Caution: wear a dust mask when collecting and carving Diatomaceous earth!

You can find more information from the source website, and I hope it is still an open location.  For more details go the website: http://www.highdesertinsider.com/html/pvglauc.htm


Directions: There is a map and directions on the website.  I followed them on Google Earth and I think the location is still in tact.  I marked the placemark to where the parking lot is, not where you walk down to the beach.
