We are adding new specimens to our websight on a weekly basis. We do our best to provide you with quality
mineral specimens at a reasoneable retail price and we have had some success in doing this.
We have a large selection of older material that is not readily available on the market today. We also have a fairly
large assortment of rare specimens purchased from reliable sources. We will list these periodically in our weekly
updates.
In future updates we will be including categories for rare minerals, micromounts and cut gemstones.
If you would like to recieve notices of weekly updates, feel free to e-mail me. We will not share your
information with anyone.
We do our best to describe each specimen correctly and if a specimen is damaged, we describe it as such and provide
suitable photographs to show it as accurately as possible. If you have any questions, concerns or suggestions, feel free to contact me at johnmet@clear.net

Note- We have been in the process of
purhasing fine and rare specimens of micro-
crystallized minerals for several years now.
In the future we will be issuing a new micromount listing for us micromounters.
Some of these specimens will be available
in very small quantities and some will be one of a kind items.
I recently purchased a camera software package for taking pictures of small micro-
crystals,but it takes a far better light
source than I currently have.
Any body have a good light source for
sale or trade?
