Santerre's Stone's 'n Stuff rock shop is a product of Neil's passion. It started with a trip to Ruggles Mine with his brother. He was hooked from that point forward. Santerre's Stones 'n Stuff opened their doors on November 10th, 2006 and has been growing ever since. Neil branched out and began cutting stones when he met a doctor while mining. The doctor owned a Graves faceting machine which he no longer used. That is the machine which now sits in our store. The mineral to the left is a Beryl which Neil mined in the Ham & Weeks Mine in Wakefield, NH. We fondly refer to it as the "Bear Claw". It is a single undamaged piece and its dimensions are 16" W x 10" H.
