Location Type: Private Property
Details: This is a quartz mine where you can dig for your own crystals in the mine. I don't know how much the fee is, but according to some reviews it may be $20 each. You should always call ahead in my opinion to ask for details if you can. Here is the last detail I have: "Rest room at mine, water available, digging tools available on request."
Directions: The GPS marks the office location, and I think you will get directions from there to the mine after you pay your fee.

That's too bad. I have heard a similar story from someone else. I don't think any good material has been found at this site for years now according to some sources. |

Poison Ivy was the biggest thing we got! However, there was a man there that had great luck. The owner was real nice quite a character.
