Gemstones in Geotourism
Journal Title: GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites - Year 2015, Vol 15, Issue 1
Abstract
The study deals with the opportunities how to connect mining sites with precious gemstones exhibited in the museums. Seemingly unrelated fields, especially at first sight, display various pieces of informtion, which are mutually connected and inseparable and this way they both create an integrated concept about precious gemstones, which is truly important for geotourism, mining tourism and modern museology. Through examples and specific illustrations, the work points out to a specific connection of Dubnik opal mining site, as a significant mine, on one hand and precious gemstones represent central exhibitions in several European museums, on the other hand.
