North Carolina has produced the largest emeralds ever found in North America. There are a number of mines, and at least two are open to the public. These are:
Crabtree Emerald Mine, near Little Switzerland, and
Emerald Hollow Mine, near Hiddenite.
A quick internet search will reveal websites for both of the above, and info on all of the other NC emerald localities.
Happy hunting!
