Summer and More Research
The Herkimer Diamond research continues. Because I teach, I basically have July and August to get in the field work needed to continue adding to this project. I did buy a new, high quality, digital camera to help with gathering field evidence.
I am always appreciative of any emails, or comments here, or ideas. It is a big project for just one person and all help is welcomed. Photos and specimen donations are always an exciting addition to the data being collected for this project.
Look for some additions to www.HerkimerHistory.com over the summer months and into early fall.

The Herkimer Spheres
If you haven't seen the photos of the Herkimer spheres you should see them. The best way to get to them is to go to the main page www.HerkimerHistory.com and click on the New Theory page. You will see the sphere page as a link.
It is also listed on the update page, but eventually this link will disappear.
I do not believe that this form of quartz is found any where else in the world.

New Information
New information is added to the website www.HerkimerHistory.com quite often. In particular after the summer field season. After the 2009 season some fantasitc new information about Herkimer diamond mines and their history was added.
