These display cases filled with colorful mineral specimens serve as a divider in the museum's lobby. They also offer a sharp contrast to what one discovers in the museum in regards to the types of rocks where oil is found.

From blocky appearing elemental sulfur crystals to wonderfully interlaced crocite, plus many others it gives visitors a glimpse into the other side of the world underground.
Type of Display: Other Significance
