About Me

                                                                                     I am the proud father of 2 boys ages 15 and 9. My wife and I recently celebrated our 18th year of marriage. I have been mining for 22 years. I am a Christian, and hold a masters degree in counseling specializing in marriage and family counseling. My wife is a school nurse, and does all sorts of things in the community. She recently served as president of our local optimist club which we both are members of. Both my sons are active in sports (which keeps us busy). We enjoy going to mineral shows as a family. Our mines have been featured in mineral magazines, and we have pieces in almost every natural history museum in the world. My father Leo has mined crystals for many years, my brother mines crystals, and my uncle who used to mine crystals owns and operates a Wavelite mine here in Arkansas.

It is our goal to provide our customers with the best prices possible on the finest quality minerals. We specialize in Arkansas quartz crystals, but my family has mined some of the most rare minerals in the world, cookite, Ankerite, and many others have been found on our crystals and included in our crystals. If you have special request we will try to help you with them. These request often are met, but it takes time. If you have any questions about anything found on this site feel free to email us at quartcity@windstream.net  or call us at (870) 356-7422.
