MINERAL COLLECTOR'S ACADEMY - ALL ARE INVITED!
Greetings, Mineral Collecting Enthusiasts,
Diamond Dan Publications is pleased to announce that we are offering, for a second time, our "Mineral Collector's Academy." This 24 session learning experience is for collectors from beginner to experienced, from 10 to 99 years of age (and older, if you are blessed by so many years!)
The classes will meet on Sunday evenings, 7 pm eastern standard time. They will be presented on ZOOM. (The specific dates are available on our website in a PDF document, as well as a syllabus of the classes included.)
Subjects covered include physical properties, building a mineral collection, mineral names, crystallography, important mineral scientists and collectors, fluorescent minerals, mineral oddities, mineral books and magazines, and much, much more.
The price and value of this 24-class experience is $500. HOWEVER, the first 15 to register will benefit from a 50% off special price of only $250.
Please go to DiamondDanPublications.com and at the top of the home page is a link to the course description, syllabus, schedule, and registration links.
We look forward to welcoming you to this informative, fun and useful Academy!
Best wishes to you all,
Darryl
aka Diamond Dan
