Welcome
Shaheen Geology Collection
The Shaheen Geology Collection is an extensive collection of minerals, fossils, shells, corals, and even dinosaur eggs from all over the world. It is the result of over 35 years of study and collecting by Shaheen and Piera Shaheen. Mr. Shaheen is the former CEO of World Carpets in Dalton and was very influential in the early growth of the Carpet Industry in North Georgia. Two of the more unique items in the collection are four dinosaur eggs from the Hunan Province of the People's Republic of China and a 44 pound iron and nickel meteorite found in the Chaco Province of Argentina. The Collection is on loan to Dalton State College and is on display on the first floor of Dalton State College's Roberts Library. It is available for viewing by appointment only. Please contact the Library Director Lydia Knight at 272-4527 to make an appointment.
