Johan,

Just wondering, was that a collector involved truck accident?

I've only been there once, but I found the owner incredibly collector 
friendly. He went so far as to keep his local collectors out after a 
blast because our group was driving in from the DC area. There was 
more strontianite, up to 1 inch, than our group needed and a few nice 
DT calcites.

Cheers,

Jeff
