Minerals of Massachusetts

On September 18th, 2019, author and collector Peter Cristofono gave a lecture at the Westborough Public Library. His lecture served as an introduction to the 275 minerals that can be found in Massachusetts and the best places to find them. Peter Cristofono has been an avid field collector of New England minerals, gems, and fossils for more than 35 years. Peter has served as the president of the Boston Mineral Club and is currently a director of the Micromounters of New England. Specimens of different minerals were on display, and attendees were encouraged to begin a mineral collection of their own. Click Here to watch the full presentation.
