We drove out to the Desert Gardens Annual International Rock, Gem and Mineral Show in Quartzite,AZ 1-2-2026. We felt it was smaller this year, however, we still managed to find some interesting slabs and minerals. 😀

Due to the raising silver prices, Prospecting Arizona will be raising the prices of our silver jewelry starting January 2026.

Silver was $15/ounce when I started silversmithing in 2019, $23 in 2024, $30 January 2025 and $72/ounce today. It has already reached over $80/ounce once.

If you have had your eye on something in our Etsy shop or at one of our shows, there is still a few days to buy before the price increase.

If you are not able to purchase in full before January 1, 2026, for a small 25% deposit, I will hold your item for up to three months until you are ready to pay the balance (contact me so I can set this up on Etsy or direct payment).

We still offer free shipping to US addresses.
