This is a group of interpenetrating tabular thick hematite crystals, bright and faceted. A rare specimen from this French mine not very known.

A very interesting and striking specimen of scepter quartz, transparent and combining a smoky hue with an amethyst coloured zone. It features phantom-like top faces... A true curiosity from the Urals.

The celestine specimens from the Torà and Ivorra regions are a classic of Catalan mineralogy. They have been found in different areas of both municipalities. This specimen comes from test pits taken near Torà, on slopes that are now covered and prohibited for searching due to the destruction caused by some prospectors in the past. Pointed prismatic crystals, slightly bluish-gray in color, are found in cavities lined with calcite, in a carbonate marl matrix.

Exceptional quartz specimen, with elongated prisms forming divergent, transparent to translucent aggregates. It has a slightly reddish hue due to the presence of hematite speckles the crystals. It is accompanied by small crystals of pyrite and chalcopyrite. A display specimen from this classic Peruvian locality.

A very good-sized fluorite specimen formed by several cubic crystals, growing in parallel and in staggered forms. Its faces show polysynthetic growths and its edges are beveled by the dodecahedron. It is transparent and brilliant. The internal color is slightly violet, depending on the light, but the fluorite is colorless, as is typical at this Asturian deposit. It is accompanied by several good-sized prismatic barite crystals, interspersed with small chalcopyrite crystals. A very aesthetic specimen.

Interesting pyromorphite with 3mm crystals from a classic, German location from the Rhineland-Palatinate. This is a classic Ems District pyromorphite of very fine combination quality. The famous Rosenberg Mine closed in 1963 and this piece certainly dates to between 1945 and the time the mine closed. It is accompanied by vintage labels #6985 from the collection of Joe Cilen (1916-1997), one of the best-known mineral collectors in the northeastern United States.

Druse of dioptase crystals, with very defined faces and edges, brilliant, transparent, and disposed on a quartz rocky matrix. The color is very distinctive, difficult to reproduce in photography. They are accompanied by small aggregates of malachite crystals, with a different green. A piece of good size and quality.

Malachite specimens from this Upper Katanga mine are notable for radial aggregates of fine crystals that, taken together, have a velvety appearance and excellent brilliance. Intense green colour, good size and fine aesthetics.

Malachite polished section on both sides. We offer this type of product not simply for decorative purposes, but also from an educational and scientific perspective. The section allows us to see the concentric growth structures of these malachites.

An interesting specimen that shows a matrix covered with clear hyaline quartz crystals. They are accompanied by faceted galena crystals with cube and octahedron faces and very defined edges. They are also accompanied by more complex but also faceted sphalerite. A specimen worth observing with a medium-power magnifying glass.

An aesthetic specimen of andradite, a variety of melanite, formed by numerous, well-defined, idiomorphic crystals, with the dodecahedron faces truncated by the trapezohedron ones. They are lustrous and shows greenish reflections and transparencies when light hits them. They are on both sides of the sample, with numerous elongated, prismatic crystals of green pargasite, one of the first historically described amphiboles.
