He's a real rockhound: NORTH ADAMS -- Collecting gems and minerals isn't just a hobby for 10-year-old Austin Street -- it's a way of life.
The soon-to-be fifth-grader, who began mining gems and minerals with his family at the age of three, has amassed such a collection that his parents turned a spare room into a display area for it.
"I just think it's really fun to do," Austin said Monday during an interview at the North Adams Public Library. "I'm very good at finding them."
A part of his collection is currently on display at the library as a promotion for the 49th annual Gem, Mineral and Fossil Show hosted by the Northern Berkshire Mineral Club, which will take place on Sept. 8 and 9 at the Eagles Hall on Curran Highway. Austin is currently the youngest member of the club.
