Don, your collection never ceases to amaze me! Both the sapphire and the Huanggang fluorite are exceptionally good and impressive specimens, museum quality samples! I know the corundum crystals from Soboba Hot Springs get quite large, but this is the most impressive one I've seen. And the fluorite, I own a smaller one from this find of blue crystals on white quartz, but this one is a killer!

Thanks for showing these wonderful specimens & best regards
Tobi

I do enjoy looking at your mineral photos - they are always crisp and clean, and very much about the specimen photographed. Please keep up the fine work.

Thank you very much for your nice comment Tobi. The opening in the azurite nodule gives us a good look inside.
