Absolutey! I really like your recently posted fluorites (Orange River, Elmwood Mine, Berbes/Spain), very aesthetic. But all the other specimens are good, too.

Keep them coming :-)

Here's a few specimens from Germany.

Very nice example of Pyromorphite. I love the lead (Pb) minerals.

Yes, indeed a fine example of that German classic. And an interesting matrix augite. Do you have info where exactly in the Eifel it was found? If there are any other minerals (maybe even some more from Germany), please keep posting them!

Yes Bob, augite is a common mineral in the Eifel Mountains. Most specimens on the market are provided with no further info than this. I thought maybe yours is. But i like it because it is a matrix specimen, and most of the Eifel augites i see are single crystals.

Cheers!
