The presentation is also said to include a “pop-up museum” display wall of polished and unpolished minerals, stones, gems, fossilized material, basic amateur field gemologist's tools, and booklets filled with useful, relevant information.
VanSteenburg's presentation will introduce attendees to interesting “rocks” such as anhydrite, azurite, baryte, calcite, gypsum, halite, malachite, manganite, and many more of which are all found right around this region.
VanSteenburg will also enlighten attendees about some famous area-gemologists, industries that were founded as a result of the gemologists' discoveries, how to use basic gemologists' tools and their purposes, as well as how to get involved as an amateur gemologist.
The program will leave plenty of time for questions-and-answers and for VanSteenburg to connect interested individuals with appropriate resources.

Light refreshments will be served, and the museum will be open for visitors to tour before the program commences at 6:30 p.m.
