Dear all,

we have organised our mineralogical collection at two levels: 1) regional vs. (inter)national objects, and

2) according to the classification of minerals based on Strunz, i.e. based on their chemical composition. See here: Hugo Strunz, Ernest H. Nickel: Strunz Mineralogical Tables. Chemical-structural Mineral Classification System. 9. Auflage. E. Schweizerbart’sche Verlagsbuchhandlung (Nägele u. Obermiller), Stuttgart 2001, ISBN 3-510-65188-X.);

and here: https://www.mineralienatlas.de/lexikon/index.php/Mineralsystematik%20nach%20Strunz%209.%20Auflage

In England and America the collections are probably rather arranged according to the Dana classification, which is based on the crystalline structure instead; see e.g. here:

http://webmineral.com/danaclass.shtml#.XodTYUxuLSE

Our petrological collection is totally unorganised at present...

If I will get to work on it in this life, I will coarsely separate the objects into igneous, metamorphic, sedimentary, evaporitic (salt, gypsum) and organic (coal), and again according to locality. But we only have a small collection, so you’d better ask someone else for details.

All the best

Björn

Dear All,

yes, that is a good question: what about geology, petrology and mineralogy?

I assume it should be the same, but taxon being replaced by sediment/rock/mineral name?

Greetings, Michael

Dear all,

for palaeontology I agree with what has been said already. What about petrology and mineralogy and geology collections?

It would be very useful to receive input from those of you who are curating such collections.

Best wishes, take care

Johanna

OH, yes. I agree with that.
People who are alive should not be mentioned there.

Dear Laura,

Agree with Steffen on this - we never show personal data (except taxon author names and responsible curators) in any kind of export/database.

All the best

Hi Laura,
I agree with what’s been written so far. Just one comment regarding ‘, COLLECTOR NAME’ – this may conflict with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in case the collector is still alive.

Have a nice weekend,
Steffen

Dear Laura, below are my comments on this:

1) How are Earth Science Collections curated and organized? I said
mainly defined by taxonomy, geographical origin, Storage and
Stratigraphic age (based on the Synthesys classifications) Are there any
more?

I agree with Jiri that this is enough!

Just to give a comparison with Andreas' list, our collections are organised and curated not only by systematic, but they cover all of the keywords above:
Level 1:
Amber
Amphibians, Fishes, Reptiles
Palaeobotany
Paleozoic and Triassic Invertebrates
Jurassic and Cretaceous Invertebrates
Tertiary and Quaternary Invertebates
Quaternary mammals
Tertiary mammals
Level 2:
Each collection is then organised by locality, stratigraphy, systematics, or a mixture of them, resp.

2) What is the minimum information that would be required in World
collections catalogue for the discoverability of Earth Science
collections and for a research to locate particular collections of
interest.

Not sure, if you mean discoverability of the collection itself, or of the museums objects that are housed in the respective collection. I assume that you mean discoverability of the objects:

* Taxon name (no higher taxon name needed)
* Repository number
* Stratigraphy
* Geography
* Housing institution
* Curator / contact address
3) What descriptive information should be considered mandatory or
desirable for each Collection?

* Name and address of institution
* Responsible curator / contact person
* Stratigraphic focus
* Systematic focus
* Geographic focus
All the best and stay healthy!
Michael
