There is a GREAT book called 'Gems For The Taking' that I would hope every NC mine carries. Fantastic info and experience in several of the mines.

I live in western NC and have purchased jewelry from Mason Mtn Mine but I've not done any gem mining here. I want to... just haven't done so. I knew about the garnets, rubies, and sapphires, but I had no idea there was kyanite in their dirt, too.

@CrystalsofArkansas 2 года назад

Yes they have a separate kyanite deposit and sometimes pieces make it into the pile. Super amazing!

@michealvillers6433 Год назад

I love watching these videos and others for rock hounding and prospecting and really want to do this myself, I am just curious on what to do with it once you find it. Gold is one thing, but raw minerals like those rubies or garnets or anything else you would find I just wouldn’t know what to do with it.

@CrystalsofArkansas 11 месяцев назад

This location offers to make jewelry with the high quality finds. Otherwise they can be used for decoration or meditation.

@douglassmith5414 Год назад

Can you polish these pieces to bring out the bright colors? Or are they not translucent on the inside? OH! Now I see the jewelry at the end...Hope to get there for sure some day...

Not in the native dirt from what I was told. They do offer salted buckets and sometimes it mixes in a little but they can identify on site and let you know.

@joshuarhoads2888 Год назад

Those are some cool finds, but people should know that most of those rocks and minerals didn't come from NC. They call it "native dirt" or "soil" because the only thing that is native to the area, in those piles, is the dirt/soil... Some of the quartz and garnets might be from the area, but all the corundum (ruby and sapphire) and kyanite is likely imported into the country and salted into the dirt piles.

@joshuarhoads2888 Год назад

There are places where you can find NC ruby, sapphire, garnets, kyanite, tourmaline, and more... but this isn't the place. Major tourist trap.

@brittneyruss3307 Год назад

I have never seen such a poor photo shopped picture to get people to watch a video. Rubies & Sapphires rarely come in large sizes as you display. If they did they would start becoming worthless, but pretty gems.
