Hello Everyone!

Our staff hopes you all had a very happy Thanksgiving! Now December is here bringing in the rest of the holiday season. For us, this means new merchandise on our shelves! We have several new tumbled stones including Jet, Pietersite, Celestite, Pink Chalcedony, and Blue Chalcedony. We also have lots of new Malachite nodules, gorgeous Labradorite free forms, and beautiful Clear Quartz and Smoky Quartz obelisks. Come check out all of our new inventory - great for holiday gifts!

Wegners also has exciting mining news! After a lengthy hiatus, our Phantom Mine is going back into production soon! What does this mean for you, our customers? It means a much better and ever larger selection of blue manganese phantom crystals and clusters than we have had in a while. Check back here for updates on our mining progress at the Phantom mine.

Our miners have been busy at the Crystal Forest Mine too! We have lots of new quartz points and clusters of various sizes and grades, with new materials coming down the mountain often. We are excited to show off our freshly mined Arkansas quartz crystals. Come see them in person, or give us a call and place an order at (870) 867-2309. Linda or Hallie will be happy to help you.

We get lots of calls asking about our “Winter Hours”. They are the same as our regular hours, Tuesday-Saturday 8:00 a.m-4:30 p.m. Our trips to the mine leave at 9:30 a.m, 11:30 a.m, and 1:30 p.m every day we are open. Our Tailings area is open until 4:00 p.m. Be sure to arrive before 2:30 p.m to go out to the Tailings, as we don’t send anyone out there after this to ensure a fair amount of digging time. We will be CLOSED on Christmas Day and New Years Day, but will be open both the day before and the days after both holidays.

In closing, our staff thanks you for choosing Wegner Crystal Mines. We all wish you and your families a very happy holiday season!

See you soon!

My partner and I visited Wegner Crystal Mines on a road trip that led us through Arkansas. Earlier on the trip we visited a different crystal mine so we expected something similar going into it, but we were pleasantly surprised at how much better of an experience we had at Wegner. Lance, our tour guide was very sweet and informative and helped give us tips at how to find the quartz. Once down at the mine, quartz was everywhere. We didn’t even need our tools, it was very easy to find quality crystals at the surface by just walking around. The mine itself is huge and you could easily spend days there looking. We both found nice clear points and clusters we were happy with. I definitely recommend going after a rain because it’ll help wash away the top layer of dirt, exposing more crystals. I also like that the mine seems to have a focus on sustainability and a respect for the environment based on information on their website. We will definitely revisit Wegner if we find ourselves in Arkansas again!
