We're located on Road 5 north, Shuniah Ontario Canada, in the Thunder Bay district. 


You can find us on google maps under: "Blue Point Amethyst Mine"


Once you turn onto Road 5 North, cross the railway tracks then take the first left onto the mine road. Follow the signs and keep straight until you see our driveway! We're about 3km in, or 2 miles.

We have free Admission, so there's no cost to enter. 

We only charge for what you decide to take home!

We provide 2 gallon buckets for digging, and only charge $40 per bucket. 

What you should bring:

One of the questions we get the most is: "What should I bring to the mine?" So here's our recommendations


  • Closed to shoes (the only requirement to enter)
  • A rock hammer or one handed sledge
  • A sturdy chisel with a handguard
  • Safety glasses to protect your eyes
  • A container to bring your treasures home in
  • A hat for sunny days
  • Lots of water 
  • Bug spray and/or a bug net
  • A smile and a love of rocks

We have a large parking lot with designated RV/Trailer parking, and a trailer turn around loop for your convenience. 

Pet Friendly!

Here at the blue points were animals lovers. 

Dogs, cats, and all other pets are welcome! 

All we ask is your furry friends are kept on a leash out of respect to other visitors, and to protect our chipmunk friends that come every day 🐿️
