https://www.udel.edu/alumni-friends/alumni-weekend/ #BlueHensForeverJoin us during Alumni Weekend at the Mineralogical Museum in Penny Hall to explore more than 300 minerals from our permanent collection, along with two exhibitions: Quartz and The Vibrant World of Lead Minerals.
Quartz features recent acquisitions, an important specimen from Pennslvania, early DuPont collection examples and a "mystery" crystal donated by Quaesita Drake, for whom Drake Hall is named.
Also on view, The Vibrant World of Lead Minerals reveals the unexpected beauty of lead-based minerals through brillant, colorful specimens from around the world, including examples from Australia, Namibia, Morocco and the United States.
Visit us to reconnect with the beauty, history and brillance of the Mineralogical Museum.
