Mineralogical Society at 150:
Past Discoveries and Future Frontiers

The Mineralogical Society will celebrate its sesquicentennial during 2026. The focal point of our celebrations will be a three-day meeting at the University of Manchester from 23–25 June 2025. All are welcome, from students and early-career researchers to those who have a lifetime of Society experience under their belts!

The scientific sessions (up to 3x parallel sessions are planned) will be held in the Schuster Building and the banquet, on the night of 23rd June, will be held at the wonderful Whitworth Hall.

The convenor is President Sam Shaw. The organizing committee is listed under programme and comprises representatives of the Society’s eight special interest groups.
