Mineral Museum

"The Mineral Museum at Missouri S&T is an outstanding and welcoming destination that showcases a rich and historic collection of minerals, many of which trace their origins back to the 1904 World’s Fair. The museum’s extensive array of specimens offers a fascinating glimpse into the natural beauty and diversity of Earth’s geological treasures, making it engaging for both enthusiasts and first-time visitors. With free admission and convenient weekday hours, it provides an accessible and enriching experience for families, students, and the broader community. The thoughtfully curated displays and strong educational focus make each visit both inspiring and memorable."

"Cute museum with so many beautiful things to see. There is even a little booth where you can see some of the minerals under a black light. The meteorite information and sliced piece was so interesting to see! An instructor saw us and encouraged us to visit other areas of the building to see fossils. It was so fascinating to see the fossils as well. Very cool place to visit! Don’t forget to check out “Stonehenge” right outside of the building. Lots of good information there as well. You may even spot the robot roaming the yard. We loved that!"

"I learned so much about minerals on my visit to this fine little museum in this fine little town, and I gotta tell ya, I never coulda thought that by the time I left this hall of wonders I'd be naming every Rick left right and center. What a wonderful experience."

"Awesome!!"
