For example, the Museo Geominero (Geomineral Museum) is a geology museum displaying minerals and fossils from Spain and its former colonies, located inside the Instituto Geológico y Minero de España building in Madrid, Spain.[4][5]

By extension, the general term geominerals then refers to minerals found on the planet Earth.
