Browsing Mindat's recent articles, I found this wonderful report about the new Alfie Norville Gem & Mineral Museum to which the University of Arizona Mineral Museum collection was moved in 2022:

https://www.mindat.org/article.php/4522/The+Alfie+Norville+Gem+%26+Mineral+Museum%2C+Tucson%2C+Arizona

Seems to be a really good and educational museum with a great selection of world-class minerals! Thanks to Roy Starkey for this museum report!

The Norville museum strikes an excellent balance between education and visual entertainment. Yet another reason to visit Tucson!
