Russell Society at the Somerset Earth Science Centre

4th October 2019 By Michael Dunmore

Two of our members, Chris Finch and Alistair Napier, have been promoting the Society and celebrating minerals from the Mendips.

This was part of the 10th anniversary of the Somerset Earth Science Centre. Chris and Alistair put on a display of Mendip minerals and encouraged younger visitors to take interest through education and free samples of locally-collected specimens.

You can find out more and see photographs of the minerals on display in a pdf file here.
