Haha I remember as a kid I used to like breaking rocks for fun. I'd try to find quartz rocks and break them. Quartz is known for holding gold veins. I actually did find a bit of gold sometimes but nothing to make me rich, and sometimes it was fools gold, the shiny cube stuff. Fun times. Now if I tried that people would look at me funny. It was a pretty intensive process.
