They are curated in the Science Laboratory building and are available to the public on request. “Dr. Lind was extremely well organized, with all his specimens labeled with name, date and place.” During his career he did field work in glacial geology in Wisconsin and in the Uintah and Wasatch mountains of Utah and extensive work in the study of ore deposits in the western states. He also made a detailed geological study of the Archean formation and igneous intrusions in the northern Wasatch mountains, which entailed the microscopic study of thin sections of many rocks collected. During summer vacations he traveled widely, including a trip to Spain and to Mexico City to attend an International Geological Congress. He gathered specimens of gold, silver, zinc, mercury and other ores on these trip for his collection.
