Donate Your Mineral Collection to the Southeastern New Hampshire Mineral Club

What do you do with an old rock and mineral collection?

  • Perhaps you are moving to a smaller home and can’t keep all of your collection…
  • Perhaps you inherited an old mineral collection and don’t know what to do with all the heavy, dust covered boxes…
  • Perhaps you are getting on in years and your children and grandchildren don’t show any interest in the collection…
You should consider donating your mineral collection or other items to the Southeastern New Hampshire Mineral Club. Our club is a non-profit organization. A donation in your name could qualify you for a tax deduction. We accept rock collections, gem collections, mineral collections, lapidary materials and equipment, books, magazines, maps, microscopes, Geiger counters, ultraviolet lamps, and geological tools. Our club reaches out to schools and scouting groups. We display club minerals, give away mineral sample bags to kids and offer numerous mineral specimens for very modest prices at our Gem and Mineral Show every spring. We are always looking for donations to support these efforts.

If the collection is located in Maine, New Hampshire or Eastern Massachusetts, we can even arrange to travel to see the collection in person, box up the collection and help remove it for you. Or you can drop it off with us if you wish.

Remember to keep all the original labels or catalog with the mineral collection. This helps ensure that we have each mineral’s identification and location where it was found noted. It is understandable if your collection is not fully cataloged.

If you feel there is substantial value to your collection and you are looking to sell your mineral collection, instead of donating to our organization, we may be able to get you in contact with an interested party.

Please fill out the form below. Answer as many questions as you can. Not all questions below require answers. When you submit, you will receive a confirmation email. Please allow us a reasonable time to follow up with you.

Thank you for considering donating to the Southeastern New Hampshire Mineral Club.
