Searchers will travel to: American Girl Mine, near Ogilby, Ca on Apr. 11, 12, 13 2025. For Saturday, 4-12-025 our morning meeting time will be 9am at our established campsite
down 'American Girl Mine road. See map below. The Searcher signs will be posted at an appropriate camping spot down that road. Bluebird mine, in the area, has bladed blue Kyanite.
Other minerals likely present on mine dumps are Sodalite, wood palm root, chrysocolla, copper minerals and occasional limonite cubes. I have a rock with beautiful pink bands,
light grey background that Jimmy P. handed me from his rock garden that came from there.

We expect the same good cheer, abundant collecting and Saturday night pot luck and fireside chat fun for all who attend. Bob bring your Gold nugget finder !!

Any questions, do not hesitate to text, then call or less reliable e-mail.
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Searchers field Trip: May 17,18 2025 is at Kokoweef Caverns, Crystal Caverns and Dinosaur Tracks.
Bailey road exit/Zinc mine road 4 miles down to our camp site, Searcher signs will be out' The elevation there is 4500', so it's a little cooler than the lower desert.
come join us and dig in the mine dumps for cutable specimens for your lapidary fun !!
There is a story of 'a lost river of gold' below the area, which is intriguing and if Bob T. puts his miner cap on, we might have to send out a search party to find him.
You know how that gold fever is :))
The perimeter of Copper World mine is close and the Valley Wells smelter is there and thriving from 1860 till late 1960, quite a history !!
