We create our Treasure Bags right here in Northern California in the Gold County – some customers have found flour gold to gold flakes in the soil and others unique gems and rocks. In 2010, one of our customers found a rough diamond (we have them in California, too). I have always enjoyed searching for gems and minerals throughout the world and have arranged to bring my found treasures into your home to enjoy. The quality of our stones and minerals are some of the best you will find as many of us have found that gem and rock hounding can be very addictive.

I have been an avid rock and gem buff since I was a teen and traveled to South America to see some great and wondrous gemstones and diamonds – I was hooked. Later in life, I became interested in gold prospecting when we moved to Nevada County, California. I learned, along with my children, how to locate and recover the gold in the rich streams that still surround Nevada County and other counties there today. I have shared my knowledge with adults and kids of all ages and enjoy seeing the surprise when they see “GOLD” in their pans and not fool’s gold, or they find color gemstones.
