Geology at Work

Experience geology in action at neighboring Vulcan Materials Company’s working quarry! Led by Kaleideum Educators, students can view the quarry up close, and learn about the products mined here and the uses of these materials in everyday life. The Joseph A. Gutierrez Geology and Earth Science Museum at Vulcan also houses a large collection of gems and minerals, so students can dig deeper into the basic components of Earth’s building blocks. (This program is held off site at Patterson Ave Vulcan Quarry location. Participants please meet at the KALEIDEUM NORTH Welcome Desk, no later than 1:15, to follow staff in caravan over to VULCAN).

 

This program is fully sponsored by Vulcan Materials Company. Groups are encouraged to visit Kaleideum North free of charge on the same day as their Geology at Work program.
