Welcome to the
Sidcup Lapidary & Mineral Society
web site

We hope you find these pages useful and informative.
The group has been running for over 40 years with an active membership.
We have a Lapidary workshop with cutting, grinding and polishing equipment,
display tables and microscopes for your use.
On this site you will find the current meetings schedule, a brief history of the Society,
a virtual tour of our workshop and some links which may be of interest.

The society also has a full schedule of Field trips for those who might like to discover the fun
of collecting mineral and fossil specimens for themselves.
Please see full schedule page.

All are welcome.
