The Rock, Fossil, and Dinosaur Shop

The Mines

This national award winning attraction is our most popular activity as well as the best way to start or add to a rock collection. Each miner wears a hardhat equipped with a bright light to see in the dark mine shaft. When they enter, there are rocks, shells, and gemstones scattered all over. It's like a big easter egg hunt, and anything that is found is kept. This attraction is open to all ages, and is definitely fun and entertaining.

 

These miners thouroughly enjoyed their mining experience.

 

 

The Mine cost $7.00 at both locations, and the miners get to identify and catalogue over 200 gems, fossils, shells, and rocks. Kids and adults alike love the mining experience, and also love the fact that they leave with a bag full of rocks to take home and add to their collection. Come on in and try the mine today!.

We have an identification box at both stores that identifies any of the specimens found in the mine. Miners always know what they found.

 

The number of specimens found in the mine is now over 200. Anything that these participants find, they keep. Everybody walks away happy.
