Seaman Mineral Museum

 I enjoyed visiting the A.E. Seaman Mineral Museum—one of North America’s premier mineral museums. Nationally and internationally recognized by collectors and connoisseurs, it features the largest public exhibit of Great Lakes minerals and the world’s finest collection of Michigan specimens. The museum’s exhibits showcase the rich colors and stunning beauty of nature’s masterpieces.

This outstanding specimen of native copper from the 
local Quincy Mine shows large complex twinned  crystals

So much to look at.







Just a few of the many beautiful minerals on display—each one a natural masterpiece showcasing vivid colors, intricate crystal structures, and the geological wonders of our planet.
