Start with the 1 legal place listed on this page — each shows what you can find, its fees, and its season, with a link to the official source. Hours, fees, and access rules change. Verify with the operator or land agency before you go.
Can I collect at old geode mines in Utah?
Treat Utah's historic mines as history, not destinations. Most sit on private land or active mining claims, and old workings are dangerous even to walk. The state page's mineral record tells you what the ground holds — the directory tells you where you are welcome to look for it.
