Riches of the Earth at Bath Royal Literary & Scientific Institution

About

Riches of the Earth is a free exhibition which reveals the beauty of minerals through the astounding forms and vibrant colours of more than a hundred carefully selected specimens from the BRLSI Collection.

Exquisite close-up photographs allow visitors to appreciate tiny details of crystal form and colour and marvellous colours and forms of these natural wonders; including glacial blue-green beryl, rainbow-hued opal, fiery red heulandite, lurid yellow sulphur, along with hexagonal prisms of aragonite, eccentrically fused cubes of fluorite, and needle-like crystals of Goethite.

Each case comes accompanied by a digital gallery guide.
