Fossils and minerals for collectors, professionals and enthusiasts.
We are pleased to announce that Zoic srl will participate in the Bologna Mineral Show 2026, one of the most important events in Italy dedicated to the world of minerals, fossils, gems and natural materials. The event will be held from March 13 to 15, 2026 at the Unipol Arena in Casalecchio di Reno (BO), with opening hours to the public from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm.
The Bologna Mineral Show is more than just a large trade show: the fair features curated thematic areas of great scientific and collecting interest, including sections devoted to minerals from the Emilia-Romagna Apennines, the jewels of the Alps (such as the prized minerals from Mount Cervandone and the Ossola Valley), meteorites preserved in Italian museums, and fossils from Asti, with special exhibits including sections on “sea monsters” and the remains of large prehistoric marine animals.
We look forward to seeing you at our booth to show you an exclusive selection of high quality minerals and fossils, designed for both passionate collectors and retailers and industry professionals. It will be a perfect opportunity to discuss the latest innovations, discover unique pieces and explore market trends together.
During the fair, our team of experts will also be available for those needing Paleontological Consultations: professional support dedicated to those working in the world of fossils – collectors, dealers, museums and institutions – to work alongside you in all scientific, regulatory and operational aspects related to the subject. For more details, visit our consulting page on our website.
