Gem Flume Mining

Playing in the water, searching for gems — that's what "fluming" is.

Gem fluming is a fun and rewarding experience you can enjoy on our rock patio.

Start with a bag of "mine muck", the real term for rocks out of the mines. Wash and screen it, watch for real gems —you keep what you find!

This is a great way to start a rock collection while learning the identifications of numerous gems and minerals.

Flume bags are available for purchase in our gift shop.
