KF88L9: Group of well defined faces and edges on tabular Pyrrhotite crystals. With some recrystalization on the pinacoid faces. To increase esthetics, a very bright Chalcopyrite crystal is located in the center of the specimen.
The specimen is from the James Catmur collection and we’ll send the label with it.

EA88K8: Crystal with a very sharp tetrahedral habit, of well-defined faces and edges, uncommon with Sphalerite, and with flat faces without curvatures or striations. The color is quite good, so the crystal has an excellent contrast on the Quartz crystal martrix.

Octahedral Fluorite with Galena and Siderite

FA53L3: Excellent group of three Fluorite octahedrons (uncommon in the deposit) showing a very aerial position, two of them dominant. Crystals show very sharp faces and edges, totally clear, on a matrix formed by cubic Galena crystals covered by Siderite.
We will send the handwritten label , from Jan Buma collection, to the buyer of this esthetic specimen.

Doubly terminated Calcite

MP56F0: An extremely brilliant, twinned crystal that is richly endowed with faces and has a form that is dominated by the rhombohedron and scalenohedron. The region where the twinning occurred has created a strange form. In the photo one cannot really appreciate its incredible transparency, but when you hold it in your hands this aspect of it really stands out.
Sarbay mine, Rudny  Kazakhstan (08/2003)

VG76G7: The growth is very curious. The Calcite forms very long scalenohedrons which are covered by multiple growths of little scalenohedral crystals of the same mineral. Calcite has a nice pale pink color and it’s on a matrix covered by little Quartz crystals.

TT86E0: Although many people call this "beta" Quartz, it is not. They do so because it resembles beta Quartz, which means that there are no prism faces, only pseudo pyramidal faces. Dalnjegorsk is one of the localities that are well known for this called "beta" Quartz (although of course them are not a specie) Given the brilliance, definition of the faces, and esthetics this one could be considered to be among the best.

Quartz prase with Andradite

EB58E9: The crystal is large, very aerial, has good color and brilliance. It stands out from the matrix, and has the typical widening for prase Quartz from this locality. The matrix has other small prase Quartz crystals as well as small Andradite crystals.
Sinerechenskoje, Primorskij Kraj  Russia (1999)
