[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 216241, member: 2976"] Hi Deb. My in-laws live in Atherton (they are down here in Gladstone for Christmas at present) and we usually go out to Mount Gibson whenever we go up to visit. Mount Gibson and probably Mount Surprise as well would both be likely for quartz crystals (I have found plenty of smokey quartz crystals at Mount Gibson) but I'm not sure of anything closer to Mareeba. There would almost certainly be pockets of such crystals around Mareeba and the Tablelands given the geology, finding them and getting access to them would be the thing. The lapidary club at Tolga would probably be your best bet for local information. Cheers [/QUOTE]
