Mon, May 12, 2025 SAN DIEGO, CA – Mineral Division Meeting
Sponsor: SDMG
Venue: SDMG Bldg, at the back of Spanish Village in Balboa Park, San Diego
Hours: 7:00 pm
Admission: Free. Open to the public.
Parking is limited behind the SDMG Bldg, so it's first come, first served. Look for additional parking in the Carousel parking lot near Park Blvd. or in the Zoo parking lot.
Mineral Division chairman Jim Parrish and Dr. Marcus J. Origlieri will cohost the May meeting. Jim will lead the audience on a tour of The Tucson Shows, Another Look. As usual, he'll have great pictures and terrific tales to tell. Jim has decided to bring back Mineral of the Month and start with a deep dive into Vesuvianite, also known as idocrase. Marcus will start the discussion with an overview of the mineral's crystallography. It promises to be a fun, educational evening.
After the presentations we will have refreshments – so please bring something to share. The club will provide coffee, tea, and punch.
