Bright yellow botryoidal Smithsonite over light purple Fluorite. The color saturation of the Smithsonite is amazing!

Gemmy pink and green Elbaite crystals atop a smokey Quartz crystal. The main crystal is 3.5cm long and well terminated. The bottom of the Quartz crystal is sawcut. Showy specimen.

Large smokey Quartz crystal on matrix with a bright, gemmy pink 4.3cm Elbaite crystal crossing near the termination of the smokey Quartz crystal. The Elbaite is gemmy and well terminated. There are many other lesser Elbaites too and an abundance of bright purple Lepidolite. Very showing California Tourmaline specimen! Sawcut on backside.

A an incredible specimen of a well preserved fossil shell partially filled by bright golden Calcite crystals.

Single dark purplish red Spinel. Complete all around with some attached mica. One of the last crystals in my inventory I obtained directly from Vietnam. I see these offered at Tucson for about $250 each.

Gemmy, complete Tanzanite crystal. Top luster and undamaged. When you see a loose single Tanzanite crystal it's easy to assume it was broken off matrix during mining, however the calcite on the bottom and backside of this crystal demonstrates that this crystal detached from the matrix naturally after formation. I think this is a very good value for a crystal of this size and quality.

Single, undamaged transparent Calcite crystal. These are known as 'Jewel Calcite' and it's easy to see why. This crystal also has two nice phantoms near the termination.
