Hello Volkmar. I have never heard that expression "ugly azurites " referring to Veszelyite before. That is so funny. BTW, Kunming was the home of the legendary "Flying Tigers."

Maybe, "ugly" was the wrong word that I had in mind. In his book about China minerals, B. Ottens mentions Veszelyite from Geiju originally named as "less well crystallized" or "insignificant" Azurites.

Hello Sante,

Thank you for your nice compliment on my Molybdenite.

Also thank you for your private message "reminding me of my duty." ;-)

Sincerely,

Don

Thank you for your kind comment Carles. I am very happy to hear from you. We are in a bit of a spike here in Arkansas for new Covid-19 cases. I hope it is better where you are.

Stay safe.

Don
