Genuine Black Hills Pay Dirt!
Claim Pay Dirt-
Dirt is collected from our claim directly, where we host mining tours during the warmer months.
Creek Pay Dirt-
Dirt is collected from the creek bed on the mine's property.
Exciting Recent Finds-
Wire Gold, Traditional Black Hills Copper Gold, Silver, Garnets, Starlight, Tourmaline, Green Pyrite, Quartz, Mica, and Gold Rush era bullets. Every pan truly is exciting and sometimes unexpected.
Gold is guaranteed in every bag and bucket!
Even though our dirt naturally has gold in it, we do seed each bag with placer gold and the occasional nugget, so as to guarantee you get something.
Give or take 5 Pieces in the Quart, 16 Pieces in the Gallon, 33 Pieces in the Bucket.
1 out of 600 Quart bags has a $10 nugget. 1 out of 1,200 Gallon Bags has a $20 nugget. 1 out of 2,400 buckets has a $40 nugget.
