MAJOR UPDATES

02/19/2019 - Technical Site Upgrade

 

  With plans to leave New Jersey for a warmer climate in the foreseeable future I’ve turned my attention to northern New Jersey.  High on my list of places to visit was the Franklin-Sterling Hill zinc mines known worldwide for their fluorescent minerals.  I certainly wasn't disappointed and have been collecting at both locations whenever the opportunity presents itself.
