点评:We happened upon this agate mine while camping at Parc Nationale Gaspesie. We drove up the road and were “greeted” by not the friendliest or most welcoming man but the lady in the boutique is very nice & pleasant. We decided to give the mining a try and we weren’t disappointed. We have never done anything like this before, so why not try it? The nice lady gives instructions on what to look for & how to use the provided hammer to get the rocks out of the clay. You can even bring your dog on the mining area on the mountain. After you fill the provided bucket, a person tells you which rocks have agates in them and you decide which ones you want cut in half. You pay for the rocks you get cut and they are priced by size. We left with 3 cut rocks with beautiful blue agate & white quartz inside - 1 small & 2 medium for $21. Their website gives more detailed info on the agates in the rocks. We had a fun time & this would be a great activity for a family.
