Hello Everyone,
I am very new to the geology world. I am looking for an activity to do with my son, so I thought we would give rock tumbling a go.
I have read that you can collect various stones for tumbling at Redcliffe, Brisbane area. I was wondering if there would be an areas around Samford or Dayboro where I could collect any sort of rock that would be worth polishing up in a tumbling?
I have checked out a few creeks in the area and have only found some white quartz, and couple with a slight yellow or pink colour.
I would love to be able to find something that is a bit more translucent as my son is quite interested in crystals.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
