This geology museum is easily as interesting as the equivalent section at the Museum of Nature and Science near downtown Denver. There are two large floors packed with an impressive array of rocks and minerals, including a little shop downstairs featuring affordable treasures for collectors. Check whether the museum is open before you arrive, as the museum hours can be irregular (staffed by students).

Suprisingly good time.
I’ll admit I’m not a geology nerd but hey, its free. I ended up spending an hour and a half browsing the collection.
Two floors, make sure to go downstairs. It includes a display mine you walk through, some history of Colorado mining, and a ton of rocks. I’d guess it is as good for kids as it is for adults, and includes a kids play area.

This reminded me of the gem exhibit of the Natural History Museum in Denver. It was smaller (2 floors) and still displayed as many rocks, minerals and gemstones that I was interested in seeing in an afternoon. Many were from Colorado. The museum is donation based, although parking is not free in that area of town. There was even a moonstone, fluorescent rocks and many meteoroids. The student staff members were knowledgable and helpful too.

Really cool museum on the college campus. It has tons of amazing minerals on display. The first floor had a cool little interactive/​walk thru mining experience. With a really cool florescent rock display. They also have a nice selection of stone for sell at reasonable prices. And its free to visit!

Very awesome place! Its free admission with SO much to see! Minerals, metals, fossils and a short walk through a «mine» which was my kids favorite part. There is the items used for mining on display and a place where they put the stones under florescent lighting which makes them glow! After your done with the inside, there is a nice walk outside to see more fossils and things.

I went here on a lark as I was visiting Colorado School of Mines in order to see where my father went 60 years ago. Boy! What an amazing museum. Wonderful speciMINES and staff. I wish it was closer so I could go again and again.

This is a great little geology museum with free admission that I would have not known about if I had not been told by a Mines student. It’s open to the public and you can just walk in after signing the guest book (and getting a free parking pass if you’re there during the week). They have lots of very unique samples (minerals, metals, and fossils) to look at, a video explaining the view and history of the school and museum, a kid’s corner, history about mining, and a nice little gift shop. They seem to not care if you want to take some photos, too. We will be going back.
