Hello friends,

The website was last updated on March 1st. This latest update features many great minerals from Missouri and Tennessee, including a nice calcite specimen from the F. John Barlow Collection, some beautiful raspberry-colored fluorites, and a really neat pyrite pseudomorph after anhydrite with galena. There are some very aesthetic specimens in this group!

Wait until you see what I have planned for next month's update! It will be filled with a wide array of choice mineral specimens. Here are just a few examples of what to expect:

• a superb smithsonite from the Kelly Mine in New Mexico;
• two sharp specimens of prehnite after anhydrite from the famous Lane Quarry in Massachusetts;
• a fine Wisconsin bornite from the F. John Barlow Collection;
• a colorful rose quartz specimen from the pegmatites in Brazil, and
• a superb and huge plate of fluorite with hematite phantoms from Germany!

Enjoy viewing the new minerals! And, as always, thank you for visiting.

Brian
