Davina
Davina has been interested in all aspects of Geology since a young age and has visited many Natural History Museums, Mines and locations of Geological interests around the world.
After graduating from Derby University with a BSc (Hons) in Geology she formed Rocks Galore Ltd. She later went on to expanded her qualifications by gaining an FGA Gemmology diploma from GEM-A. For the past several years Davina has been lecturing the Gem-A Courses and Gemmology & Geology to students at BCU.
As both a creative person and mineral gemstone enthusiast, it was the perfect way to combine artistic flare with love of gemstones and minerals, to created custom made unique jewellery and imparted indepth knowlege and skills to many students -
Iain
A relatively newcomer to the mineral world Iain’s first experience of a mineral show was when offering to help on the Rocks Galore stand at the Bakewell rock exchange back in 2010.
From there on his knowledge of minerals has continued to grow and he has developed a particular interest for fluorite specimens.
