Appraisals are $20 per stone.
If you haven't already, I recommend you read our full Identification & Appraisal page

Please take clear photos. Failure to provide adequate photos in focus and good lighting will result in poor identification and will not be subject to a refund.
The more photos the better. Help me help you.

Please, No

Meteorites

We do not identify or appraise any meteorites. We get a call every week from someone that “found a meteorite”. Kindly, If it was in the middle of a field with no other similar stones around it, it is called an “erratic” and was pushed there by glaciers thousands of years ago. If a magnet sticks to it and it has iron in it, please note that iron is the second most abundant element on the earth's surface. There are many rocks that look like meteorites- statistically, the one you found is not. If you are still determined to believe you have found a meteorite, please contact the UBC geology department.

Metal Ores

Rocks that need to be crushed and assayed to determine if gold is present can not be visually inspected to determine ore types within.

Gravel

Rubble Rock And Gem specializes in minerals, crystals, and gemstones. Regular rock that looks like it came from your driveway needs to either stay in your drive way, or be brought to a geologist.
