For more than 35 years, Rockin On Route 66 has been a passionate presence in the gem and mineral industry. What began as Marks Minerals in Bisbee, Arizona, in 1992, transitioned to Gaeas Secrets in 2014, and, finally, found a home at Rockin On Route 66 in Sierra Vista, Arizona, a traveling venture along the iconic highways and vendor circuits of Washington and the American Southwest, has grown into a beloved destination for rockhounds, collectors, and enthusiasts alike.
