Still time to get in on Saturday’s dig!! Otherwise, the limited folks coming are going to have one easy, crowdless day at the mine. Who knows what they’ll find while they have the place all to themselves?
Our dig is this week, and we still aren’t full! Register for the 13th today to get in on this chance to dig! See previous posts about how to sign up!

Want to be like Jonathan Otero and find stuff like this? He put in the work at the mine, and the mine paid it back with quality pieces!
Reserve your spot for our June 13th dig today! DM our page with the secret word “TRAIN” and how many spots you need (example: “TRAIN 3 adults 2 kids) and you can find your own amazing pieces!
Thanks Jonathan for the pictures!

Always try to find at least one dogtooth every dig - outdid myself this time - mineral coated sample thats in amazing condition!
Today’s one of those days that separates the Rockhounds from the Rockpuppies! Mild rain, overcast, not the best conditions - however, the piles aren’t gonna dig themselves, and the rain won’t stop us (unless it floods us out, lol)!
For those coming, its still going to be a good day!
