Event Details

What looks like a normal rock may actually be a geode with crystals like quartz hiding inside. Learn about the amazing science of geode crystals and try your hand at breaking open a rock to see what you find! We'll talk about how to measure rock data to identify crystals and discuss how these crystals form over thousands of years.
