A.E. Seaman Mineral Museum of Michigan Tech 1404 Sharon Avenue, Houghton, MI 49931

"Absolutely enjoyed this museum!! Very informative. The garden outside had nice rocks also!"

"Takes about 30 minutes if you read absolutely nothing I had 40 minutes to spare, so I decided to check this place out. Even though I barely had any time, I still thoroughly enjoyed my visit The gift shop seemed extensive. I bought a piece of bismuth for $12"

"Awesome collection of rocks and minerals. Personally I own over 200 varieties of rocks and minerals, and I had never heard of or seen 90% of what is at the museum. My mind was blown. We managed to catch them during a sale as well and snagged some good pieces for cheap. Would definitely come back just for purchasing minerals."

"Learn about the local mining history, geological processes that led to mineral deposits, and the best part-spend a lot of time looking at a huge collection of mineral samples from all over the world. The fluorescent minerals exhibit is a small but brilliant exhibit. There are chairs throughout the museum to rest, and the gift shop has some unique items."

"Great place to visit if you are visiting Houghton and Michigan Tech. In terms of museums, probably one of the finest collections of minerals in the entire US. Open the entire week and on Sundays as well. The tickets for Michigan Tech students cost $4, and if you are a non-michigan tech student, it costs $8 for an adult. They have a beautiful gift shop to take a piece of mineral marvel with yourself."
