About Sugar Creek Gem Mine
Do you want to experience the thrill of prospecting for your very own North Carolina Gemstones? Then join the fun at Sugar Creek Gem Mine, where we guarantee you will find both precious and semi-precious North Carolina gemstones. With Sugar Creek Gem Mine you can expect the highest quality service and first class equipment. We consider our Sugar Creek Gem Mine staff to be among the best in the industry. Some began their mining careers 40 years ago; while some were born into the industry. Our staff members are historians, jewelers, comedians, geologist, silversmiths, gemologist, and yet remain the single most complimented component of our organization. Our staff’s enthusiasm for gemstones is truly contagious.
Sugar Creek Gem Mine is owned and operated by the Leonard brothers, twins Matt and Chris. The Leonard family has been in the North Carolina gem mining and outdoor adventure industries for decades. Their father founded High Mountain Expeditions, a rafting and adventure company, which they also now help to run.
