Currently sand and gravel are the principal resources being mined, but granite and slate are also extracted. In certain parts of the state limestone and gemstones are mined successfully. The <a href=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/4h\/stem-toolkits\/minerals-gems\/\">Minerals and Gems 4-H Science Toolkit<\/a> was developed to introduce youth to these geologic resources. The toolkit contains eleven experiential learning activities and includes samples of minerals and gems found in Maine. Youth will explore those minerals and gems using standard identification methods and tools (such as hardness and streak). Youth will explore the structure of those minerals, and will learn where in Maine minerals are found \u2013 and why! This Maine 4-H Toolkit was created with the generous support of the Maine Mineral and Gem Museum.Learn more about this, and other 4-H STEM Toolkits <a href=\"https:\/\/extension.umaine.edu\/4h\/stem-toolkits\/\">online<\/a>, where you can see what is available for different age groups or topic areas.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maine 4-H Dairy Team Earns Blue Ribbons at&nbsp;The Big E<br \/>\n<\/strong>On Friday, Sept&nbsp;17, and Saturday, Sept 18th, Maine sent four 4-H Dairy members down to The Big E to compete&nbsp;against other New England states&nbsp;in a newly formatted&nbsp;set of competitions.
