Hello everyone, I just signed up. For weeks I've been following the forum that immediately appeared interesting to me so I signed up. I have been collecting minerals since the age of 10 and still do it, when I can I look for minerals from myself, since here in Sicily, apart from sulfur, calcite, aragonite, gypsum, celestine not much is known but there is more both in terms of minerals and locations, greetings .. |

Hi everybody
I dont know what is the right way to introduce myself, but as a newby I wanted to share some details about my experience and my fields of interest.
I started my profesional experience long ago as a geologist by studying hydrothermal systems and their coeval economic resources, mostly with perigranitic ores, then with rare metals and carbonatites.
Then, I turned to study fluid-rock systems in basinal environments (i.e. diagenesis) spending some time to work on the CO2 underground storage projects in westen Europe.
Finally, I turned to even more applied research in industrial crystallisation (chemical engineering) where my geologist's experience was very welcomed.
Now retired, I would like to turn again to my main field of interest, i.e. petrology, either igneous, sedimentary and/or hydrothermal, with a special interest on skarns.
I do live near the Estern Pyrenean area, where aluminous granites, pegmatites and skarns are quite common, on either side of the border. Hope we could share some ideas, field work, and interesting questions. |

Welcome Daniel. Last time I was in your area was working on the TGV from Spain into France. But I collected no specimens, sadly. |

Hi everyone!
I'm Joćo, a physics student from Portugal and I re-started collecting minerals some weeks ago after deciding to clean the dust off my old collection.
I'm thrilled to be part of this forum because I know it will have a great impact on my knowledge of minerals.
Kind regards,
Joćo Luz |

Welcome. I hope you enjoy your time. May I suggest collecting a few minerals from Panasquiera. The mine produces some very fine Ferberite, Arsenopyrite and Fluorapatie specimens.
All the best

Greetings from Dallas! My name is Tama Higuchi. I am a graphic designer, painter (specifically watercolors for mineral paintings) and thumbnail collector. I particularly enjoy collecting specimens from the Kalahari Manganese field, and some American classics.
I am also one of the administrators of Young Mineral Collectors
https://www.youngmineralcollectors.org
(link normalized by FMF)
a mineral group that is dedicated to fostering a community for young 'rockhounds,' and creating stunning displays at shows to show the world of mineral collecting that their future is in good hands.
I've been involved in the mineral collecting community since 2019, but I am just now getting around to making an account here. Great to meet you all, and I look forward to further discussion! |
