Welcome to Megaliths! Rock Collection
Please don't touch my rocks...
These are my rocks! I've found a good few of them myself however most have been bought from other collectors at shows, rock shops, and my local rock and mineral collector's club. This page is currently under construction; check back later for rock pics!
Rocks I've Found
I like to try to go on a collecting trip about once a month. Sometimes I'll go on a field trip led by my local rock collection society, however most of the time I just research a locality and take a trip out myself. Most of these are rocks I've found at home, but some I have found on field trips at my college. For my own safety and the preservation of these sites I will not publicly reveal their locations. If you really want to know about the site of a particular rock, contact me and I will tell you about it over email. These rocks are very sentimental to me because I put my own blood, sweat, and tears into digging them up and breaking them open.

Rocks I've Bought
These rocks are a bit more spectacular than the rocks I've found myself, however they don't hold the same sentimental value. Most are from faraway places which I could never even hope to visit (many great mineral specimens from China). However I bought most of these because they're beautiful (IMO) which is why I feel they still deserve a spot on the page. These rocks came from a wide variety of sellers, including rock shops I've stopped at on my travels, rock and mineral shows in my state, and internet sellers. I'm a big fan of Rocks With A Story on Etsy for unique and affordable pieces, Rockshed.com for rarer stuff, and Fossilera.com for fossils.
