You’ll Never Forget A Trip Through This Old Gem Mine In Georgia

What do you get when you combine Georgia history, a perfect way to spend an afternoon outdoors, and well-..a lot of gold and rare gems? You have Gold’n’Gem Grubbin’ in North Georgia, of course! This is North Georgia’s only commercially operating Gold Mine, and the perfect family adventure for your next summer day-trip. Take a look and see exactly what hidden gems and treasures you will find.

Welcome to Gold'n'Gem Grubbin', North Georgia's only commercially operating historic gold mine!

This one-of-a-kind mining adventure allows people the opportunity to hunt for rare gems and gold like they once prospected back in the day.

The opportunities to find gems such as rubies, sapphires, emeralds, amethyst and topaz are endless.

Of course, you can't forget the gold you can mine, too.

This gold mine was formerly a part of the Loud Mine, which supplied $2 million of minted gold bullion coins during the Civil War.

Nowadays, Gold'n'Gem Grubbin' uses "Placer Mining" as a way to find gold and gems, which includes sifting through the streams and rivers where the mines run off today.

There aren't too many opportunities left in the world where people have the chance to prospect gold and gemstones from a historic, mid-1800s mine.

The gold and gems are extracted from a 100-acre mine in the mountains of North Georgia.

Guests can pan for gold, or cool off in the refreshing stream and see just what hidden "gems" they find.

The best part about spending the afternoon at Gold'n'Gem Grubbin' is that you truly never know just what you'll end up being able to take home.
