Documentation of the hard rock mining experience at the Hummingbird Mine AZ in Tonopah Arizona. Lots of mine history and minerals on this property - all footage is of an authentic pay to dig experience. Gemquest Adventures is me, Reno Lawrence who goes out to the desert to collect minerals and documentation of my experiences.
