NEVADA ROCKHOUNDING
Nevada is an actual rockhounding paradise. The reason is Nevada was once totally under water, back when giant marine reptiles swam freely in a gigantic, shallow sea in an area that would later become Nevadas Great Basin. Majorgeological activity happened, making way for massive deposits of silver, gold, opalized wood, onyx, agate, geodes, jasper, turquoise, and a whole lotta fossils. It helped make Nevada the lucrative mining area it is today.
In Nevada, spending the day searching for little bits of natural history can be the perfect way to connect with the great outdoors. You will have the thrill of cracking open a slab of shale to reveal a trilobite fossil or unearthing a gorgeous nugget of turquoise. Once you find your first gemstone, youll wonder why you didnt start rockhounding earlier.

GOLD HISTORY
The mining districts of Clark County are scattered through the many north-trending mountain ranges characteristic of this part of the State.
Although there is some indication of early small-scale mining by Indians and Spanish explorers, it was not until 1855, when the Mormon settlers began operating the Potosi mine in the Goodsprings district, that large-scale lode mining began. The Potosi is the oldest lode mine in the State. Gold-silver deposits were discovered in the Eldorado district in 1857, and some time later, in the Goodsprings and Searchlight districts.

TOWN OF SEARCHLIGHT
A mining town that grew up around a rich gold strike in 1897, Searchlight succeeded Pioche as the principal city of southern Nevada when production began in earnest in 1902.
These days Searchlight is basking in a new prosperity based on its location on the ever busier US 95 traffic corridor between Las Vegas and Laughlin.
The origin of the towns unusual name is explained in an exhibit at the small museum a short distance east on the Cottonwood Cove road. It says the Mining District (and therefore the town that grew up there) was named for a brand of wooden matches.
The display includes a piece of the wooden box they came in. Its big enough to serve as a small writing-desk (the original laptop!) and its easy to picture a group of elated miners searching their excited minds for a name to give their discovery.
It's not hard to find exciting things to see and do in Searchlight. An abundance of tours are available to explore the area including trips to an old Gold Mine, and trips to Joshua Tree and Grand Canyon National Parks.
COTTONWOOD COVE: Located about 45 miles north of Laughlin on the North end of Lake Mohave, this recreational and resort facility offers an array of watersport activities for any outdoor enthusiast: fishing, boating, water skiing, swimming and camping. Cottonwood Cove provides RV services, boat rentals, boat slips and marina conveniences, launch ramps, swimming beaches, picnic areas, restaurants and great access to the lake.

LAKE MOHAVE is a reservoir on the Colorado River created in 1951 following the completion of Davis Dam near present-day Laughlin, Nevada, and Bullhead City, Arizona. Named for the Mohave Indians who previously inhabited this region of the Colorado River valley, Lake Mohave extends approximately 67 miles along the valley from Hoover Dam to Davis Dam straddling the southern Nevada and northwestern Arizona border, which follows the original river channel.
