Uncover Treasure in the Mining Village Activity

View of the Mining Village Sluiceway

The White Post Farms Mining Adventure is a unique package offered to schools, providing an educational and fun experience for all.

Each child will receive a bag of mining rough which is the raw dirt and rock particles from the mine. From the outside the mining rough does not look like more than a bag of dirt. But hidden inside are natures natural wonders. Each child will bring their rough to our large mining sluice. Our sluice consists of a large water tower where water flows through various drops and turns into a wooden sluiceway. Each child will slowly empty their bag into one of our screen bottom boxes, then swish the box in the running water. This swishing is called sluicing.

The screen on the bottom of the box allows for the dirt to wash away while it holds in your precious wonders. Remember, what you find you keep and discuss your finds in the classroom. We strive to use the finest mining rough to ensure easy identification for miners.
