"The southwest region of British Columbia offers a motherlode of unique rockhounding experiences for both amateur and more seasoned prospectors.

The Coast Mountains are a treasure trove of minerals, from gold and jade to opal and agate. Discover amethyst next to the road, or find fossil trees over a meter long.
