      Hundreds of rocks are displayed in the mineralogy department laboratory of the Royal Ontario Museum as Dr. Joseph Mandarino, head of the department, talks with 13-year-old Steven Berdock. Steven began collecting specimens two years ago and is proud of the display he has at home. The museum's collection is one of the fienst in North America and among the best ten in the world.
