Birthday Party Options

Purchase your bags and sifters here and do the sluicing part at your home. A shallow tote or small baby pool will work nicely. Mining rough bags start at $10 each and each come with an identification brochure. Sifters are $3 each and they can be shared so you shouldn't need many. This is your least expensive option

You can have your party here at Little Big Gem Mine & Rock Shop utilizing our two picnic tables, the outside covered porch, and a place to hang a pinata. There is a nominal fee of $50 added to the cost of the bags purchased for each party guest. This is not a private party as the gem mine will be open to the public while your party is happening. For this reason we prefer that the parties have no more than 15-20 miners and all parties do require a reservation.

This is your nest cheapest option.

If you want a private party with a mining sluice on site we do offer our mobile mine.  It would include ten of our yellow bags with identification brochures,  delivery and set up, and an attendant with geology knowledge to help miners identify their rocks. Prices start at $250. Please call Lisa for  more information.
