About Spokane Bar Sapphire Mine
Spokane Bar Sapphire Mine is an amazing and absolute must if in the area, worth making a trip for. It is a veteran-owned family operation offering a wonderful and fun experience. Visitors can do a dig or go through bags of material, such as the Mother Lode or El Dorado bags, finding genuine Montana sapphires. While most stones are small, people find plenty of sapphires, including larger gem-quality stones of three to five carats, which can be faceted for jewelry. The experience is very good, with friendly, helpful, nice, informative, and knowledgeable staff. The service is excellent. It is a great experience, worth the time, effort, and cost. People highly recommend checking it out, often planning to return. The mine also offers the cute idea of bringing material home for an at-home date night or to have shipped, allowing the fun of searching for sapphires to continue elsewhere. It can get warm, so bringing cold waters and hydrating snacks is suggested.

We had a great time with our family and we found lots of good stones. We had a number facet grade stones and my daughter left three of them there to be faceted. It was truly an awesome experience.
