Welcome to

Cobb County Gem & Mineral Society

We share our passion for nature's bounty with the community.

We are a group of amateur geologists, rockhounds, jewelers, and rock and mineral enthusiasts. There is something for people from the age of 6 to 106. Come and join us for our monthly meetings and classes.

CELEBRATING OUR 54TH YEAR
1970 - 2024

We, at the Cobb County Gem & Mineral Society, are very proud of our long history. Our name has a valued reputation in the Gem and Mineral world. However, we sometimes hear of people who would like to join us, but believe that they must live in Cobb County to qualify. Well, good news! That’s not so. We welcome people from anywhere in Georgia as well as Alabama, Tennessee and other neighboring states. And a few from farther away…even in Portugal!! So, if you are interested we would love to welcome you to our club.
