Gold and Diamond field trip July 22-25, '09
The Adventure Guide's Gold and Diamond Trip will stop at the famous Kelsey Lake diamond mine in Colorado. . We are headed out to the state line district, between Colorado and Wyoming.
According to Johnny Walker, we are scheduled to stay at a beautiful guest ranch and explore the geology and visit some kimberlites, cryptovolcanic structures and the Kelsey Lake kimberlites. You will be taught how to identify diamonds, kimberlitic indicator minerals and how to find kimberlite in the field.
There will be lost treasure stories, Jack Slade's burried treasure, overland trail stage stations, indian wars, lost mines, ghost towns... the area is packed with tales of history and heritage!
Then we're off to the hot springs resort town of Saratoga, we'll stay at a beautiful historic resort while exploring for Gold. Learn the geology of the Snowy Range, more diamonds, gold rush history, lost treasures, learn everything you ever wanted to know about identifiying what you find.
We will stop to collect large garnets, copper and gold specimens and learn how to pan for gold and diamonds.
The best part is... YOU KEEP all the GOLD and GEMs you find!
Affordable and fun... the trip you will remember for a lifetime... REALLY, I'm not kidding, this one is very special, downright unique.
O by the way, everyone will recieve a one year membership in the Gold Prospectors Association of America. You get your gold pan and prospecting gear, and the right to camp and prospect any of the GPAA claims in 41 states and provinces. The summer tour that keeps on giving!
Give me a call, only 10 more lucky prospectors will go with us on the July tour. 393-884-9404
