During our holiday break year we went to Tequisquiapan in the state of Querétaro in Mexico. It is a very beautiful place with lots of activities nearby. It can make the wine route (visiting vineyards with tasting included) or cheese. Also close the enormous Bernal and Opal Mines in Trinidad or can fly on balloon. We opted for the mines. The Trinity is about 10 miles from Tequisquiapan. The mines are privately beret owned (government grants to individuals for exploitation) and to visit them should go first to the house of the owner and what they carry in their trucks 4 4. One of the most visited is La Carbonera. We hired a tour in downtown Tequisquiapan. Arriving at the house we explained the process followed when the stones are. Opal is removed carefully to avoid tearing and removes the stone quarry covering it. It is then polished in several steps and is shaped to be mounted on a piece of jewelry.
My kids were going with the idea of a mine and the dwarves of Snow White, with helmet and the whole thing. As is the open, were not made to the idea that it was a mine. Stone is broken and looking for something that will shine: the opal.
On the walk we had our peaks to find the stones to see if we ran with luck. I found some, we could have stayed. We found many beautiful beret stones with a piece of opal that was never formed, but nothing major really. Although the thrill of finding one was great. One carat equals 0.2 grams stone and can cost several hundred dollars depending on its purity, color and brightness. beret
At work and in shape, explosives are used to break up a large piece of rock and then go with peaks splitting into smaller pieces and look for stones. The tour takes about 3 hours total. beret As we arrived early (10:00 am) we were lucky that we spend more time. We were looking for opals at the mine about 2 hours, and from which we arrived we saw the work of the stones and bought souvenirs, the tour lasted more than 4 hours, but is usually 2-3 hours. According to the agency to hire, the cost is about dls US $ 23.00 per person. The cost and stones mounted from a US $ 25.00 dls on, according to your taste and your pocket.
The visit was sensational. My kids were happy to walk among the stones poking it play out. Little is innate collector stones. beret All life spends collecting stones from the street and gives them to me for "my beret collection" which actually are what he gives me and no other. Let a box filled with stones beret that daily brings me home. Often I check if it left any stone in your clothes before washing. I see that gives you a sense of ownership and very important discovery for him. Although sometimes they are pieces of concrete broke off from the street. The guard with such gusto, that I keep as if they were gold. For us it is a treasure because the joint thinking of me and that's worth more than anything in the world. The girl was very happy to climb the rocks and reach the top of the mountain to keep digging. Les was very hard to get something of value. It did not go much but was very pleased with his effort. We highly recommend visiting it if you are out Tequisquiapan.
