About Burlington Gem and Mineral Club
The Burlington Gem and Mineral Club (BGMC) is a northern Vermont club open to anyone interested in minerals, fossils, gems, and lapidary crafts. Founded in 1966 and affiliated with EFMLS since 1967, the club holds monthly presentations by members and invited speakers, organizes field collecting trips throughout New England, New York, and Quebec, and hosts members-only auctions. BGMC promotes public interest in mineralogy through talks and displays at local schools and libraries, and administers the Ethel and William Schuele Scholarship funding original research on Vermont geology by New England/New York students. The club publishes a monthly newsletter and is a member of both EFMLS and AFMS. Its annual Champlain Valley Gem, Mineral and Fossil Show is held each July at the Champlain Valley Exposition.
