ROCKHOUNDING IN NEW YORK
New York offers rockhounders a diverse geological landscape to explore. From ancient river gravels to exposed bedrock outcrops, the state has produced everything from common quartz varieties to rare regional specialties prized by collectors worldwide.
Before collecting, always verify land ownership and any permit requirements. BLM land generally allows personal-use collecting, while state parks vary and national parks prohibit removal of any natural materials. Leave no trace and fill any excavation holes.
