Gemmological Association of Australia (GAA) is an association that was formed to promote the education of the science of gemmology and the study of gemstones as a safeguard to the public against spurious stones.[1]

The inaugural meeting of the association was held in the School of Arts Building, Pitt Street, Sydney on 29 October 1945.[2][3]

The association has divisions in six states of Australia, the smallest being Tasmania Division.[4]
