Earth Collections: how to search the databases

The databases can be searched on any one or combination of the fields on the form. If two or more search criteria are entered, the search will return only those records that match all the criteria.

The search is not case-sensitive.

In the Minerals and MacCulloch Collection databases it is also possible to restrict the selection of records to those that have associated images.

A summary table of search results for the selected records is then returned. It is then possible to view full specimen details for any record in the summary table by clicking on the appropriate reference number.
