Nature's Treasures: Minerals and Gems
The Flett Theatre, Natural History Museum - London

One-day meeting, co-organized by Gem-A (the Gemmological Association of Great Britain), the Russell Society and the Mineralogical Society, in association with the Natural History Museum, London.

The aim is to provide a day of short talks which will be of interest to an audience comprising members of all three organizations, and to others who have not previously had an association with any of the organizations mentioned above. Students from schools and universities are welcomed and members of Rockwatch, in particular, are encouraged to participate.

An exciting line-up of talks is planned, with the following speakers (some with titles) already committed:

• Alan Collins: Diamond – a unique mineral and the ultimate gemstone
• M. Feely: Teaching gemmology in the Emerald Isle – a geologist’s perspective
• N. Moles: The Russell Society: promoting mineralogy and helping mineralogists in UK and Ireland
• R. Siddall: Nature's palette: Minerals and crystals in pigments and paints
• Guy Clutterbuck: Gems from mines to market
• J. Faithfull: 250 years of mineral collecting at the Hunterian Museum
• C. Carlon: Mining the Ocean
• J. Ralph (title to be confirmed)
