"Stan Grove: Jade" August 7^th 6-7pm

The Riverton Museum is hosting Stan Grove for this Wyoming Community Bank Discovery Speaker Series on August 7 from 6-7pm.

Jade collector Stan Grove of the Riverton Mineral and Gem Society will be giving his talk “Green in Them Hills: The Allure of Fremont County Jade.” Since at least the 1930s, south-central Wyoming has been recognized as a top locality for nephrite jade of various colors and textures, well suited for jewelry and carving, and with an international market. Stan will present the story of this mineral treasure – its geology, history and lapidary appeal.

This program is free and open to the public.
