Our story began in 2016, I purchased a historic 45+ acre mine, located in the gold rush town of Mariposa, Ca. My mine supplies my gem and mineral shop, Yosemite Crystals! Most people report our 2 hour gold panning trip as the highlight of their vacation! If you have ever watched Gold Rush, and dreamed of panning gold, Daniel (Owner), is an avid gold prospector. He enjoys personally instructing participants, and finds it very rewarding to educate folks about the area's gold rush history.
