In the early 60s I went to Franklin, NJ to collect some specimens of franklinite and the associated calcite and willemite. There was a large open pit of tailings that we could scavenge through. Never got a chance to go to one of the two night sessions that were held annually. To wander through that pile with battery operated short wave UL lights must have been thrilling.
