Welcome

Note: We regret to inform you that Dr. Clive R. Neal form the Department of Civil Engineering and Geological Science of the University of Notre Dame is unable to join us at the Friends of the Geology Museum talk due to unforeseen circumstances. But we are pleased to announce that Dr. James Wright from Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences of Rutgers University will be presenting: “Geologic Analogs for a Warming Planet”. The talk will be held this coming Tuesday, April 17, at 7:00PM, in the Assembly Room, Winants Hall, Old Queens Campus, Rutgers New Brunswick. We apologize for any inconvenience caused and we look forward to see you at the talk. Thanks!

The Rutgers University Geology Museum features exhibits on geology, natural history, and anthropology, with an emphasis on the natural history of New Jersey. Exhibits include a dinosaur trackway, a mounted mastodon, rocks and minerals from New Jersey and around the world, and florescent minerals.

The museum is free and open to the public, and can provide tours for groups by arrangement.

Special events include the annual Open House and Mineral Sale on the last Saturday in January. The Friends of the Geology Museum sponsors talks each spring and fall. The Museum also offers a small gift shop featuring rock and mineral specimens.
