SUMMARY:OVMC May 2025 Meeting - Grenville Night and Mineral Auction
DESCRIPTION:5:30 PM Mineral Identification and Kids Corner \n\n\n\n“Rock Doctor” Clinic: Starts at 5:30\, ends at 6 PM. Members are free to bring in a reasonable number of samples or specimens to be identified by the expert mineralogists in the club. This has been a very popular activity for the membership (at times exceeding our capacity to deal with everyone present!). \n\n\n\n“Kids Corner”: We will now be having a table set aside for children to learn the basics of mineral identification and other related activities. Thank you to Tara Conroy for setting this up! \n\n\n\n6:00 PM Meeting \n\n\n\nMineral Auction (cash please) \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Michael Bainbridge\, Assistant Curator of Mineralogy\, Canadian Museum of Nature \n\n\n\nTopic:  Grenville Geological Province Night \n\n\n\nThe complex metamorphic rocks of the Grenville geological province host many of the famous mineral localities of SE Ontario and western Quebec\, including the Otter Lake apatite mine\, the Miller property titanite-apatite\, the numerous occurrences at Bancroft and Madoc\, and hundreds more. We are planning a brief review of the geology of the Grenville followed by hands-on demonstrations of the sometimes confusing rocks and minerals found in this terrane. This will be a great opportunity for all of us to improve our skill in identifying and understanding Grenville rocks and minerals. \n\n\n\nLocation and Directions: Canadian Museum of Nature\, 240 McLeod St.\, Ottawa. Enter through the main entrance and turn left\, go to the end of the hall past the cafeteria
