Minerama Fossicking, Gem & Jewellery Show
« on: January 14, 2017, 05:09:27 PM »

Minerama - Glen Innes

Search for buried treasure in Celtic Country with a 3-day program (Thursday, Friday and Saturday) of guided fossicking field trips to suit both beginner and experienced gem hunters. It’s great fun for the whole family with a wealth of gems waiting to be unearthed and jewels waiting to be worn.

Entry to the Gem & Jewellery Show at the Services Club and on King George Oval is free. There are over 100+ stalls trading in gemstones, fine jewellery, facet rough, lapidary tools & supplies, crystals, beads, fossils, mineral specimens, arts, crafts and more. Whether you are after a two-dollar special, a gemstone of world-class quality or a unique piece of jewellery you’ll find it at Minerama.

I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once.

Wow - crazy timing.  I literally just fired up the computer to see if there was anything on the Minerama field trips this year and when it hadn't been updated I logged on to post and here is this thread started not 15 minutes ago!

Looking forward to it!

Jerry - you getting up there again this year?

All depends. Either Minerama or Wandoan. Depends when a certain club field trip occurs and how much free time I have.

Yes - thought I had better get this year's calendar updated.  Up to June - hope to post the others asap.

Hopefully the field trip info will be up soon - we will keep nagging so we get the info as soon as they have it.

cheers
