ROCKHOUND CODE OF ETHICS
I will respect both private and public property and will do no collecting on privately owned land without the owner's, or claim holder's permission.
I will keep informed on all laws, regulations, or rules governing collecting on public lands and will observe them.
I will, to the best of my ability, ascertain the boundary lines of property on which I plan to collect.
I will use no firearms or blasting material in collecting areas.
I will cause no willful damage to property of any kind - fences, signs, buildings, etc.
I will leave all gates as found.
I will build fires in designated or safe places only and will be certain they are completely extinguished before leaving the area.
I will discard no burning material - matches, cigarettes, etc.
I will fill all excavation holes which may Qe dangerous to livestock.
I will not contaminate wells, creeks, or other water supply.
I will cause no willful damage to collecting material and will take home only what I can reasonably use.
I will support the rockhound project H.E.L. P. (Help Eliminate Litter Please) and will leave all collecting areas devoid of litter, regard­ less of how found.
I will cooperate with field trip leaders and those in designated authority in all collecting areas.
I will report to the Bureau of Land Management, or other proper authorities, any deposit of petrified wood or other material on public land which should be protected for the enjoyment of future generations for public, educational and scientific purposes.
I will appreciate and protect our heritage of natural resources.
I will observe the "Golden Rule," and will use "Good Outdoor Manners," and will at all times conduct myself in a manner which will add to the stature and "Public Image" of rockhounds everywhere.
--Adopted from the American Federation of Mineralogical Societies Code of Ethics
