Test Article

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Rockhounding in McAdoo, PA

McAdoo, PA in Schuylkill County and Centralia, PA in Columbia County are only a half
hour apart. Both sites can be done in one trip.
McAdoo is the famous quartz site but it is also famous for peacock coal. Our focus will
be on the peacock coal.
Centralia is famous for the coal mine fire. It is no longer burning in town, so visiting is
easy. The site in Centralia is famous for fern fossils.
For both locations, we will give you a little geologic history, explain exactly how to access
these sites, and show examples of finds there.
