 The dinosaur collection is fabulous. Other collections, however, have nothing to envy: if for example we look at the geological collections spread among the Vale Inco Limited Gallery of Minerals, the Gems & Golds Gallery and the Hall of Fame of the Canadian mining sector, there are more than 3,300 stones, and some of which are breathtaking, such as the Star of Lanka, a blue star sapphire of 193 carats.
