2nd time digging at this place 1st time was 3 years ago same time and what a great time we had for 2 days brought home 5 …5 gallon buckets , even camped 3 dumps with Dump trucks that day. Today not one truck dumped and didn’t stay but 2 hrs! Not even close to 3 years ago! Turning way more commercialized ! We are going to a new place I hear that’s way better from people that use to come here! I don’t think it’s worth $50.00 we spend!

Wonderful accessibility. It was much appreciated on our third day of digging. We were getting sore lol. The store was welcoming and it was refreshing to have good bathrooms. After several hours and a bag full we were about to leave and they brought up some fresh tailings. We found some great pieces. But we also found trash. As did our neighboring diggers. Some tiles. What appeared to be a car part and the pieces to some orange plastic fencing. Just made us question what we were actually digging through. We each have a half bag full of smaller pieces. Oh!! Also add that we were digging about 15 minutes and a guy came by to inform us we might be wasting time there and where the newest piles were. So appreciated that!

So disappointed in finding zero crystals on our dig here in September. We drove 10 hours each way from Cincinnati because my friend had dug crystals here before and found tons of them. We spent at least two hours digging in several places with no luck. I suspect they are dug out! That's a crystals I have been tapped out. They did not bring out a fresh haul while we were there but they promised we'd find crystals. I would be suspicious about this place.

We were there on October 31st. It was so much fun. The ladies in the store were so kind. They explained everything on how to find crystals. At the dig area, Don was so helpful. He was very nice to talk to. We found a few small crystals and some other pretty rocks. We would definitely go back.

Love Ron Coleman Mining. Have been twice in the past 3 months, and it's a 7hr drive. If mining in the summer, a beach umbrella is highly recommended.

If you like digging through dirt, this is the place to come. I really enjoyed it. Staff was very helpful. Found several crystals! Even if they aren’t worth much, they’ll be beautiful decorations for our house.

I did the unlimited everything all day package and it was such a great value for the money and I had so much fun! My tour guide John was kind, knowledgeable, and personal. He gave me advice on how to find the best crystals! The man working in the dig area, Vincent, was so capable, courteous and kind. All the staff was excellent, but especially those two. Loved the zip line - at first I was terrified but it was a blast. Highly recommended for anybody! Just make sure you prepare for a day in the sun and dirt .

Such a cool experience. The staff was awesome and helped you find great crystals. They also dumped 4 new loads while I was there. I had my entire bag filled by the time I was done and found some amazing pieces. I will definitely be back.

This place was fn awesome, we loved Elijah our tour guide. We loved digging and mining. And we found so many crystals!!! And it wasn't too expensive for digging and the tour. The mine was pretty but Elijah really made it fun. He's not even a geologist but he knew so much about the rocks. We didn't do the zip line because James is scared of heights but it was okay because we could see everything from the top anyway. Give elijah a raise!!!!!

Only 75c yards of dirt dumped in 10+ days. Few tiny pieces found but nothing to write home about. My husband and kids were here earlier in the year and had a much better experience. Based on this trip I will not be making the drive to do this again. Staff deserve 5 stars for friendliness and helpfulness.

Awesome place. Lots of fun. Very knowledgeable staff. Didn’t have time for the tour but will definitely experience it in our next visit. Gift shop is a little overpriced

Had such a fun time here! First day we went, we came pretty late in the day and the lady at the counter was so kind to give us half off due to short digging time. Second day we came earlier and it was so fun. Not only did we find some nice pieces mining, but we got a great tour from Elijah who was very informative about the mine and crystals. If we are ever in Arkansas again, we will definitely be stopping!

Amazing mining spot for diamonds. My family and I were here for about 3 hours. We didn't find any diamonds but it was fun except for the heat not as hot compared to Texas. Overall definitely recommend as long as it's not too hot outside.
