Unless otherwise stated, we meet at the clubrooms of the WA Lapidary and Rock Hunting Club Inc., at 31 Gladstone Road in Rivervale. See location map.
Field trips to localities of mineralogical and/or geological interest are held once or twice a year. For insurance purposes these are usually open only to financial members of the Society.
