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.
