SUMMARY:Mountains of Minerals Show

Dealers from far and wide gather to share their knowledge and stock of minerals  and demonstrations of lapidary techniques are show highlights. \nThis show is one of a few Gem Shows in California at that time.  Mariposa is very near the geographic center of California\, convenient to the central San Joaquin Valley and Yosemite National Park. \n\nThe show includes a silent auction of jewelry\, rocks\, and minerals. Geode cutting is back again by popular demand.  There’s a large raffle. Local vendors will also be available with a variety of food items. \n
