Welcome!

To the Delaware Mineralogical Society’s web page.

     We are a non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion and education of mineralogy, paleontology and the lapidary arts.  We have monthly meetings at the historic Greenbank Grist Mill at Price's Corner, near Wilmington, Delaware.  We have speakers and programs that promote the goals of the society at each meeting. 

     DMS is proud to announce our affiliation with the American Federation of Mineralogical Societies (AFMS).

     We conduct several field trips a year to fossil and mineral localities in the tri-state area and further afield.  Many of our DMS members belong to other clubs in the tri-state area, creating close ties and providing opportunities for some co-sponsored field trips a year.    Please visit our Field Trip page for more information on upcoming field trips and pictures and field reports from past trips. 

     Delaware Mineralogical Society sponsors an annual mineral and gem show on the first weekend in March open to the general public.  Be sure to visit our Show page for directions, coupons, show times, dealer information and much more.

     Come join us on the second Monday of each month for our club meetings at the Greenbank Mill. We also sponsor other events, during the year. We welcome visitors and guests.

     Enjoy our web page.  We hope you find it informative and easy to use.
