Geological Collections map and news
This map shows the location of geological collections, to the best of our knowledge. We have also plotted recent news stories which we have been made aware of. If you spot any missing or incorrect information please let us know. If you are planning a visit be sure to check details with the organisation itself.

Small red dots indicate places (usually museums) which we believe house a geological collection. Please use the link provided to the website to obtain further information and directions. | |
Where the red dot is surrounded by a larger blue ring, then we have located articles in The Geological Curator which relate to this place. Clicking on the link in the information box should load the article. | |
Where there is a green star underneath the place name, we have identified a recent news story relating to the geological collections there. The original story is linked in the information box. |
