About Us

Following her passion, Laura Randolph, owner and president of Mama's Minerals, started selling crystal gemstones and geodes at arts and crafts fairs around the Southwest in 1985.

Mama's Minerals prides itself on its knowledgeable customer service, honed over more than two decades in the rocks and minerals business. You'll find a universe of interesting and beautiful mineral treasures and other products - authentic fossils, natural minerals, metal detectors and prospecting supplies, metaphysical supplies... and beads, beads and more beads!

We add to our product line on a regular basis, so check back often to find new planetary treasures. (If you'd like to receive automatic updates on new products as they're added to our site, learn more about RSS Subscriptions here.)

We have thousands of items that aren't featured on our web site, and we add to our inventory regularly, so you're sure to find a treasure that you (or a lucky gift recipient) will love. Our knowledgeable staff of 11 is happy to answer any questions.
