Nice facility for gem mining with pleasant knowledgeable staff. Adults and children alike will have fun and learn a lot. Mined gems can be turned into beautiful jewelry by excellent craftsmen.

Our family of 5 had a blast. Kids ages 8, 7, and 5. My boys love rocks already and collect them everywhere. So this was the perfect activity for them. We bought the 70$ bucket and it kept us busy for a looooooong time. Might’ve been able to survive on the 30$ bucket if we had needed to that day. We found more than our moneys worth in rocks and memories. We found emerald, garnet, ruby, and topaz to name a few. We stayed indoors because of the weather and it was wonderful. The staff is so kind there!

Family of four, we bought the Big Daddy size bucket. We were all entertained our findings. Took the gems inside where they were sorted and identified. Chose two gems to be cut to be sent to our home address. Great experience!
