This was a great activity to do with our visiting grandchildren. They loved the experience of finding the gem stones. Their suitcases went home much heavier!

Fun to watch the kids sifting for what they think is gold and gems. My two kids enjoyed it and we had a good time.

A fun thing to do with little kids. My 10 year old son and one of his friends had a great time and have asked to go back.

Plan with the weather as the mining flue is outside. I loved doing this and so did the kids. It opened up a world of discussion on fossils and rocks! Would definitely do this one again and we drove 2.5 hours to get there!!

Went to Copperhead Creek Gem Mining Co in Nashville last summer (2013) with my grandson and daughter. It was so much fun and recommend it to anyone who likes to mine for gems.

We had a great time last summer stopping in with my young children. The children loved playing in the water trying to find treasures and the adults were just as eager.

From Our Editors

Where prospectors once used the running waters of a river to search their hauls for gems and gold, Copperhead Creek Gem Mining Company employs a winding wooden sluice. Deputized geologists shovel scoops of raw material sourced from 12 mines into wire mesh sifters, allowing the current to carry off the dirt and reveal the colorful stones that lie within. The company also offers bags of mining rough that are likely to contain fossils and arrowheads, along with geodes that visitors can crack at home by using a hammer or throwing them really hard against a tree.
