Welcome to our completely recreated, fully operational, filled-with-fun mining station; The Stonyman Mining Company Gem Sluice. It’s an interactive history and geology lesson…pioneer style. And it’s the perfect opportunity for kids and adults of all ages to roll up their sleeves, get their hands wet, and discover a truly good time.
