With three Gold & Treasure Shows down, four to go in March and 13 more shows set for the rest of this year, the GPAA’s gold show crews are once again all revved up and ready to roll. The show in Mesa, Ariz. was a phenomenal success on all levels — record attendance of 2,921, vendor participation, wide variety of displays — including gold, gems and other finds, such as relics and historical artifacts and products — as well as more mining and prospecting equipment. Besides these improvements, this year’s shows are better organized, said GPAA Director of Operations Dominic Ricci.
