The Mineralogical Society of Victoria was established in March 1976 with the aim of fostering an interest in Mineralogy.

We are currently in the process of planning meeting schedules for the next year. Meetings are anticpated to be a mixture of evenings in the city (see below) and weekend afternoons at suburban Lapidary clubs.

Evening meetings when held in the Melbourne CBD are at the Royal Society of Victoria's rooms, 8 LaTrobe Street, Melbourne commencing at 8:00pm and usually finish around 10:00pm after a light supper. 

Visitors are most welcome to attend.
