Ever been underground in a real sapphire mine? ⛏️💎

The Sapphire Gemfields has two walk-in underground mine tours, and they're experiences you'll be talking about long after you've surfaced.

Here's what you need to know:

1️⃣ You'll go 15–20 metres underground through tunnels carved by real miners. It's one thing to hear about sapphire mining, it's another to stand where it happened.

2️⃣ A guide takes you through around 45 minutes of tunnels, geology and history. You'll leave knowing how sapphires form and why the Sapphire Gemfields produces so many of them.

3️⃣ And the history is just as good. Hear fascinating stories from the early days of sapphire mining and life on the fields.

4️⃣ The temperature underground stays remarkably steady at around 24–27°C. No matter what's happening outside, it's neither too hot nor too cold.

5️⃣ It's suitable for most ages. There are some steps on the way down, but the walk itself is easy and safe.

6️⃣ Afterwards, roll up your sleeves... Both mines give you the chance to try your luck at finding your own sapphire. A bucket of wash, some equipment and a bit of patience - you never know what you'll find. 💎
