Rock and mineral determination

Bring your rocks, minerals, and fossils to the museum on selected Sundays and let our experts identify them for you: from rock treasures discovered on holiday to collections unearthed during a basement clean‑up.

We look forward to your visit! Our rock and mineral identification service is free of charge, just like museum admission.
