The mineral images seen below were downloaded from the mindat.org website. We don't have the means currently of taking pictures of the small crystals that we usually collect. However, these images are very similar to the minerals in our collection. Blogger is NOT cooperating with me, so you will have to wait for the pictures. I'm soooo bummed. 1) Olivenite from Majuba Hill, Nevada. Actually I found the vug and I pointed it out to him. We were collecting underground in an abandoned copper-tin mine. 2) Chalcophyllite from Majuba Hill 3) Clinoclase from Majuba Hill 4) Aurichalcite from the Hidden Treasure mine in Utah. Here is Tim in the mine. 5) Topaz from the Thomas Range in Utah 6) Austinite from Gold Hill mine in Utah 7) Artinite from San Benito County in California 8) Tetrahedrite from the Sunshine mine in Idaho. We went 5,000 feet underground in a working silver mine. 9) Carminite from Gold Hill mine 10) Hemimorphite from the Santa Eulalia district, Chihuahua, Mexico 11) Brochantite from Broken Toe Mine, Nevada 12) Azurite from the Centennial Eureka mine, Utah 13) Realgar from the Getchell mine, Nevada |
