THANK YOU! 

VOLUNTEERS, DEALERS, EXHIBITORS AND GUESTS for making The 4th Phoenix Heritage Mineral Show so fun and successful!

Stay tuned for 2025 details on dates and location!

NORTH STAR PURPOSE:

MINERALOGICAL SOCIETY OF ARIZONA’S

PHOENIX HERITAGE MINERAL SHOW (PHMS): Focus on well-known, top-quality mineral dealers with a select representation of high-quality gemstone, jewelry, and fossil dealers. The goal of our show is to bring exceptional minerals to the underserved mineral collector and to be a gathering place where collectors can cultivate their passion for fine minerals and enjoy good fellowship with others in the mineral collecting community. PHMS exists to fill a niche not found in most club shows.

Quality is our guiding light as the PHMS Show Committee seeks out and invites highly regarded dealers known for their stunning displays, superb inventories, and loyal customer followings of dedicated collectors.

PHMS is The Largest, Quality Mineral Show in the Phoenix Area catering to mineral collectors and offering them an annual destination to look forward to each year.
