Lets face it - we are all here because we share a love of crystals - "nature's arithmetic flowers".  At Dark Star Crystal Mines we support your passion as first off, we are rockhounds beyond all else, so we know what is driving you. We offer education, crystal collecting opportunities and an authentic rockhounding experiences in the Bancroft area. With us you will be able to pursue your interests in the way that rockhounding in Ontario is meant to be.

 

At this time we have over 300 acres of the finest crystal producing land in the province, mainly vein dyke fissures, but also pegmatites, skarns and transitions. You keep what you find, no matter how much it's worth. Our guests discover world class crystals quite regularly. By way of a will to dig and by applying the lessons taught, it certainly tips the odds in our client's favor. If you hope to find treasures work hard. If you are satisfied with tailings of significant value you are also in the right place. If you can't tolerate bugs you need to accept that you are ill suited to being a rockhound.
