Because of my participation in the Colorado Mineral Show in Denver, you will only receive my new offer list 2 / 2024 today with a slight delay. I used the summer months to carry out a variety of analyses on interesting older material from Brazil, Canada, Chile, Italy, Mozambique, Norway, Sweden and the USA, as well as two new finds from the Harz Mts.
The current offer contains, as always, a variety of very rare and new minerals such as Alnaperboeite-(Ce), Bismoclite, Camanchacaite, Chinchorroite, Ferro-ferri-holmquistite, Ferrokinoshitalite, Graftonite-(Ca), Gysinite (Ce), Nannoniite, Perloffite, Rowlandite (Y), Silhydrite, Tweddellite and many others.
A new discovery in the Harz Mountains in Saxony-Anhalt is already considered outstanding, with rarities such as Belosharite, Delafossite, Fehrite, Giorgiosite, Kunatite, Lahnsteinite, Mcguinnesite, and the absolute rarity Ramazzoite. Analyses of Tantalum minerals from a pegmatite in Mozambique revealed pretty Fluorocalciomicrolite, Ixiolite-(Mn), Stibiotantalite and others. I have pretty specimens with violet Jadeite crystals from Italy. From the new Copper Mines in the Congo come display specimens with what is probably the world's best Ludjibaite, as well as extraordinary Magnetite crystals.
"Equicalastrobus chinleana" The name is a bit bulky, but the opalized horsetail fruit stands from the Western Sahara are pretty. Another highlight of the list are interesting specimens with Hauyne crystals from the remote French Polynesia. I also have something pretty for garnet collectors. Almandine crystals on Pyrite matrix from the Alps.
I offer an extensive assessment and analysis service. I´ve own modern REM-EDX technology available, please ask for more details.
the prices relate directly to the expense of acquiring the specimens and the work (cleaning, testing, etc.) done on them. All prices include the current 7% VAT on minerals.
I give a discount with large orders only.

I describe the material as accurately as possible, to minimize any possible discrepancy felt on receipt. owever, if you are not satisfied with a specimen, please send it back promptly in its original condition, well packed.
