Welcome to Canada's Free Online
Earth Science Magazine

Since 1997, the Canadian Rockhound has served as Canada's leading web-magazine on the earth sciences for educators, beginners and hobbyists. We invite you to explore our extensive and award-winning website.

The Canadian Rockhound introduces beginners and children to the world of rocks, minerals, fossils, gemstones and Canada's geology. It also serves as a valuable online resource for collectors and other hobbyists. In addition, you will find news and other useful information, including over one hundred online articles on Canadian minerals, gems, lapidary and fossils!

The Canadian Rockhound is updated throughout the year. We are pleased to make this website available online free to everyone. It's easy to use - just click and read! There's no need to subscribe.
