About Penobscot Mineral and Lapidary Club

The Penobscot Mineral & Lapidary Club (PMLC) is an active rock, mineral, gold, and fossil community, founded in 2005 and an EFMLS member since the same year, that educates its membership and the public about geology, fossils, mineralogy and lapidary science through club and youth programs, lapidary workshops, and field trips. The club meets at the Milford Town Office Hall near Bangor and publishes the Penobscot Mineral and Lapidary Club Bulletin.
