CARSON CITY, Nev. (KOLO) -The Western Nevada College Geology Club holds its annual Rock, Mineral and Fossil Sale Friday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. in Room 322 of the Bristlecone Building on the Carson City campus.

It raises money for the scholarship program. Purchases are cash only.

“We have rock, mineral, fossil, gem and shell specimens from all over the western U.S.,” said WNC Professor Winnie Kortemeier, club adviser, who estimates that more than 1,000 samples will be part of the sale.

New for the 2024 sale are samples of garnet in the volcanic rock called rhyolite. They are from Garnet Hill near Ely.

“We will also have samples of magnetite for sale from C Hill here in Carson City,” Kortemeier said. “Also new this year are really beautiful copper ore samples from the Yerington area.”

“Funny how times change — when I was a kid, getting a lump of coal was a bad thing. Now, rocks … rock!” said WNC President J. Kyle Dalpe.

WNC is at 2201 West College Parkway in Carson City.

What’s at stake?

UNLV will make the Mountain West championship with a victory and play at No. 11 Boise State with a potential shot at the College Football Playoff. The Rebels could lose and still make the conference title game, but it becomes more complicated and their chances to make the playoffs would almost be nil.

Key matchup

UNLV offensive line vs. Nevada defensive front. The Rebels, behind QB Hajj-Malik Williams and RB Jai’Den Thomas, average 245.3 yards rushing per game, which is sixth nationally. They should have their opportunities against a Wolf Pack defense that allows 179.7-yard average.

Players to watch

UNLV: LB Jackson Woodard. He is ninth in the nation in tackles (108) and tackles for loss (15), but does much more than rack up stops. Woodard also has intercepted four passes and defended 12 passes.

Nevada: QB Brendon Lewis. He is one of the Mountain West’s top dual-threat quarterbacks, having passed for 14 touchdowns and rushed for eight. Lewis also thrown for 1,998 yards rushed for 745.
