We have very sad news:  As of December, 2025, the 71-year old Greensboro Gem & Mineral Club has disbanded.  With nearly 80 members including Lifetime Honorary members and around 35 active members, its leadership was ready to retire.  The Club Officers had overstayed their terms and then there was no one to take their place.  Our material assets have been disbursed, and cash assets via a sizeable donation to the State Natural Science Museum in Raleigh for mineral display cases, and to the Forsyth Gem and Mineral Club in neighboring Winston Salem, NC.  Our library of books and magazines has been given to them as they have a permanent meeting space with room to make them available to members.  FGMC has opened their arms to membership to attend or join their Club.   They had been sharing field trips with us for quite some time and plan to bolster their events with new members.

 

 We thank you for visiting our webpage in the past and encourage rockhounds everywhere to keep digging, keep exploring, keep learning about the fascinating world of gems and minerals.  Rockhounds make great pals, too!
