MSA was founded in 1919 for
the advancement of mineralogy,
crystallography, geochemistry, and petrology, and promotion of their
uses in other sciences, industry, and the arts. The Society encourages
the general preservation of mineral collections, displays, mineral
localities, type minerals and scientific data. MSA represents the
United States
with regard to the science of mineralogy in any
international context.
The
Society publishes journals
and books, and uses short courses,
lectureships, Internet website, awards, grants, symposia, and meetings
for professionals, students, and the public.
THE
GIANT CRYSTAL PROJECT
Giant crystals seem to be a somewhat
neglected flower in the field of geosciences. Only a limited and widely
dispersed literature
about this topic exists. Very
few scientists are working on this
subject despite
the fact, that the formation of extraordinarily large crystals is still
poorly
understood.
Giant crystals are beautiful and spectacular works of nature and are
ideally
suited to fascinate everyone!
So, visit THE
GIANT
CRYSTAL PROJECT and find out
just how big
a crystal can grow!
This is a fantastic "Link
site" Loaded with websites especially devoted
to Mineralogists, Petrologists, Crystallographers and Geologists.
A
visit to this site will guarantee to further your knowledge
of
the Earth Sciences!
Enjoy
a visit to our
favorite club at the
EL
