The rock market

Like rocks? Then head to the Sacramento State Geology Club Rock Auction this Friday, and find more than 200 geologic items including fossils, gems and minerals. Highlighting the diversity of the Earth’s often-historic building blocks, these items vary from pebbles to rocks and from crystals to geodes. Proceeds from the auction will go toward Sac State’s Geology Club to help pay for field equipment, trips and lab materials for students. Of course, if you don’t like the idea, then kick rocks. It happens Friday, November 18, at 6 p.m. in the Sacramento State Alumni Center. For more information, visit http://csusgeologyclub.comuf.com.
