Geology in NC: An Earth Science Workshop

We are sorry, but this workshop is FULL. 

Geology in NC is a FREE workshop sponsored by Vulcan Materials Company in partnership with Rowan Soil and Water Conservation District, the NC Geological Survey, Horizons Unlimited, and Historic Gold Hill. Teachers will tour Vulcan's Quarry and learn about the many uses of mined materials. They will learn about North Carolina's geological history and the discovery of gold in our region. They will also take away some free materials and hands-on activities to use in their classes.
