Featuring 700 GPS-Verified Rockhounding Sites and 200+ Gems, Minerals, Geodes & Fossils
You’ve seen those dazzling photos of agates, geodes, and crystals, and wished you could find treasures like that yourself. But once you step into the field, everything looks the same.
Which rocks are valuable? Where can you legally collect? What gear do you actually need? Most beginners end up frustrated, confused, and ready to give up before they even start.
Without clear, reliable guidance, rockhounding quickly becomes overwhelming. Many guides leave out essential details, making it hard to identify what you’ve found or know where to look. Some collectors even face fines or injuries because they didn’t know the laws or safety basics.
The Rockhounding Book [12 in 1] is the ultimate field-tested manual built on 30 years of real exploration. It’s not just another list of sites; it’s a complete system that shows you how to locate, identify, collect, and care for your finds safely, ethically, and successfully.

Store description
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
