Granite County, located in the great state of Montana, was established on March 2, 1893. The county was named after the abundance of granite present in the region. It is situated in the northwestern part of Montana and covers an area of approximately 1,733 square miles. Philipsburg serves as the county seat for Granite County.
The county's history is deeply rooted in the mining industry, particularly in silver mining. In fact, Granite County was home to one of the largest silver mines of its time the Granite Mountain Mine. The Granite Mountain Mining Boom, which happened in the late 19th century, attracted many workers and families to the area, leading to a significant population growth in the county. Philipsburg became the main hub of economic activities during this boom.
One fun fact about Granite County is that it is home to the Sapphire Gallery, where visitors can uncover their very own Montana sapphires. The Gallery offers a unique hands-on mining experience known as "Sapphire Gravel Washing," in which visitors can sift through buckets of gravel to discover and keep the beautiful sapphires that they find.
