Transparent single Quartz crystals with inclusions of what are possibly Laumantite. Ex. Cal Graeber Quartz collection number Q-280.

Colorless Quartz crystal with Amethyst and Smoky scepters on each end forming what are called 'barbell' scepters. The larger end is complete all around, highly transparent with excellent color. The smaller end has a point of contact on the backside.

Large, bright red crystals of Cuprite on matrix. Whereas most Milpillas Cuprite are more flat lying on matrix, this specimen features robust crystals that rise up off the matrix. Individual crystals reach 1.4cm in size and are highly translucent to transparent when backlit.

Long translucent to transparent single Natrolite crystal. Perfectly terminated and complete and undamaged. From recent, limited production, these new Natrolites are exceptional for the species for their sharpness and transparency.

Elegant and sculpturanl cluster of three Tourmaline crystals with attached white Feldspar. The crystals are a gemmy green at the terminations and I love how the crystals lean in towards each other as approach the terminations.

Stunning single crystal of Magnesioaxinite (Axinite-Mg) from Tanzania. These are found as a biproduct of mining for Tanzanite and are only seldom found. This is a good one, with glassy luster, transparency, and nice purple and blue coloration. It's much thicker and robust than most. Complte all around with minor edge chipping, much better than the vast majority.

Complete orange Spessartine crystal from recent production (yes, there is small scale mining ongoing at this locality). A complete crystal with very minor edge chipping and one contacted area on the bottom where it grew against another crystal. Has a second small crystal intergrown and has areas of gem transparency.
