Photos From the 2002 Dig at Trotter Dump
The ore wall in daylight.
The ore wall about 3 stories tall by about
60 feet wide, illuminated by 2 Triple Brites.
The ground is like sand but is composed mostly of Calcite.
At night with a short wave light the ground fluoresces red.
These are 4 specimens of Willemite on the ground.
One of the trenches to search in.
Dave Russell sharing some Hardystoneite with
Lou Budell and John Davis.
Jeff Winkler checking a specimen found by his son.
Collectors check out spots all over the Trotter site.
A dark room is provided so collectors can check their
finds under "Dark" conditions.
Another of several trenches that were
dug to bring "new" old material to the surface.
