  • Ametistikaivos vierailu kesällä

    Amethyst Mine

    Lampivaaran Ametistikaivos on ainutlaatuinen vierailukohde Lapissa. Tämä aito jalokivikaivos sijaitsee upeissa maisemissa Lampivaaran huipulla, keskellä Pyhä-Luoston kansallispuistoa. Alueen geologinen ikä on miljardeja vuosia. Ametistikaivoksen toimintaperiaatteet ovat hieman poikkeuksellisia: kaivuutyöhön ei käytetä koneita, eikä ametisteja myydä raaka-aineeksi. Kestävällä tavalla toimiva Ametistikaivos toivottaa vierailijat tervetulleiksi ympäri vuoden. Lumettomana aikana kaivokselle saavutaan luontopolkua pitkin patikoiden. Yksityisautoilu kansallispuistossa on kielletty. Opastettu Ametistikaivosvierailu kesällä: • Tarinankerrontaa ametisteista sekä paikallishistoriaa ja alueen geologiaa. Opas kertoo ametistien synnystä ja näihin upeisiin violetteihin jalokiviin liitetyistä uskomuksista. • Ametistin kaivamista ja löytämisen riemua. Jokainen vierailija saa pitää itsellään yhden nyrkin sisälle mahtuvan ametistin. Halutessaan voi pieneen lisähintaan lunastaa useammankin kiven kotiin viemisiksi. • Vierailu pieneen kivipuotiin. Valikoimassa erilaisia kivituotteita, raakakiviä, hiottuja kiviä ja ametistikoruja. Lampivaaran ametistia ei mene laisinkaan jälleenmyyntiin, sillä haluamme itse jalostaa sen paikallisesti valmiiksi tuotteiksi ja elämyksiksi.

Matka kaivokselle taittuu kaivoksen lumiajoneuvolla, Ametisti-Pendolinolla, joka lähtee aikataulun mukaisesti Ukko-Luoston P-alueelta. Ohjelman kokonaiskesto kuljetuksineen on noin 2 tuntia.

  • Pyhä-Luosto National Park and Amethyst Mine by Car (Inari-Saariselkä)

    Lapland Welcome

    Experience the magnificent landscape, beautiful natural features and peace of Pyhä-Luosto National Park. Pyhä-Luosto National Park is a superb destination for day trips year around. The basic zone of the National Park is formed of Finland’s most southern fell chain. The area has many functions; it is for conserving nature, preserving indigenous people’s culture and serving as a destination for hiking and tourism. The National Park consists of Pyhätunturi National Park which is established in 1938 and of the Luosto area northwest of Pyhätunturi Fell. These were combined at the beginning of 2005 to form a new National Park. In southwest areas of Ukko-Luosto Fell and Lampivaara Hill forests have not been logged and some trees are as old as 400 years. The Luosto area is known for its majestic old-growth pine forests and Pyhätunturi for its geology and Sámi history. The fell chain is a collage of treeless peaks and deep ravines. Lush forests, some of them herb-rich forests, flourish in the area’s valleys and along brook banks. The Lampivaara Amethyst Mine is a sectioned off area within Pyhä-Luosto National Park. Quartz is the most common mineral in the earth’s crust after feldspar. Amethyst a rare violet coloured see-through form of quartz has been found at Lampivaara in Luosto. The clearest parts of the amethyst found at Lampivaara are classified as a gem and is often used in jewellery. Gathering amethyst gems from the National Park is forbidden except from the Amethyst mine. On the top of Lampivaara fell there is the only operative amethyst mine in Europe. It may be the only gem mine in whole world that welcomes visitors. In warm cosy Lappish hut the mine visitors hear the fascinating stories of amethyst, how it was formed 2 000 000 millions of years ago, how the place was found and how the mine is run on permanent progress principle, how people in all cultures have believed in the mystical powers of amethyst and other interesting tales found in ancient legends.
