Experience mineral treasures normally locked away in the museum’s vaults with the museum’s curator. Assembled over the span of over 120 years, this collection is a record of vanished mines and long-gone geological wonders. From brilliant beryls to glistening geodes and opulent opals you will have a personal view of Earth’s great crystal jewels. Bring a rock from your own collection and have our geologist ID it, or try to stump him! FREE with Museum Admission.
