Gilsum Rock Swap

Dates: June 28/29, 2025   •   Gilsum, NH

We will be setting up at the Gilsum Rock Swap for our 8th year! This is a great outdoor event for the entire family. Whether you are looking for rough material, cut stone, gems, jewelry, and specimens large and small, this is the place to go! We are set up at the end of the vendors area at the exit. This is a great spot if you're looking for larger yard rocks as you can drive by and pick them up on your way out without needing to carry them with you. Every year we carry our different materials from large yard rocks, to micro specimens in perky boxes, and everything in between. We can't wait to see you there!

Mining Showdown, Crystal Grove Diamond Mine

Dates: Sept 2025 - Dates:TBD   •   St. Johnsville, NY

This is one of the most fun events we are part of outside of the mineral shows! This is our one trip per year where we use power tools. Teams of up to three claim one 10' section of the mine wall and have a two day race to claim fame in three categories: Most material moved, most quartz found (by weight), and best find. We are excited to be participating for the 7th year this year! This may not be the atmosphere of a mineral show, but it is a great time to be at the mine watching and learning.
