I found these at Diamond point they have some good size stones nut most are very small pencil eraser sized or so.

Diamond Point is definitely your best bet, but any of the creek beds around will have loose crystals. I have property up near there, and the crystals are very clear, if a little small. Good Hematite and Adventurine collecting as well.

I don't have any details at the moment.  Maybe we will be lucky and someone else can share the answer.

Are there other places besides Diamond Point to find the crystals?? are they kind off all over or just near DP? do you have to break open rocks to find them? or just dig to find the crystals?

reminds me of the lotus flower i saw in deep meoiiattdn then found out it was my soma chakra a light blue lotus flower, chakras are real and can be seen visually i have truly seen mine and can attest to the fact that they really exist, i wish everyone could have seen what i saw then there would be many more believers in something then believers in nothing, all chakras look like lotus flowers and mine was spinning counterclockise and was placed in the east, i have now changed my life to hope:)
