Even though the Quartzsite, Arizona Gem and mineral show is much smaller than the Tucson show, there’s still plenty to see. The Quartzsite show has something for everyone in the form of fossils, minerals, gems and meteorites.
During my visit on Jan. 11, 2009 I was surprised to meet Bill Hall. Bill and I have chatted via telephone on and off over the last year. Imagine my surprise when he told me that he found his very first meteorite while searching north of Quartzsite about two weeks prior. It looks like an ordinary chondrite to me, but to Bill it is the realization on his long time dream.
