Hi Fred,
Thanks for your outstanding photos (as usual). Is you have some from the Bavarian Alps, could be fine to enjoy the scenery with some snow.

|
|
Barcelona 11/01/2012
Due the problems created for our server failure yesterday, I should divide my comments. Now I will publish a short note with some images and this weekend the rest.
Munich 2012 was in my opinion one of the poorest Shows in terms of novelties ever. In the other side, a lot of superb specimens from classics, old collections, and recent finds. So, this time the topic of the Show wasn't this or that novelty but the prices! ;-)
I will develop this topic in my next post, but as other people already commented in other sites, the break between the "best" specimens/dealers and the rest of the collectors is becoming enormous and it seems that the hobby it could announce a kind of fracture between the "modest" or field collectors and the "elite" collecting wonderful (but quite expensive) world class specimens.
Returning to the novelties, as always happens in a so large Show like Munich, here and there some small new find appear to make happy us, the "noveltie's yonkies".
For me, the main of these novelties were the incredible Hydroboracites from Kohnstein Quarry, Niedersachswerfen, Nordhausen, Harz, Thuringia, Germany. Largely the world's best in my opinion... I would like also point a bonanza of cobaltian Calcites from Morocco as well as some unusual new "poker chip" Calcites with Pyrite from El Hamman mine, and a new flow of sky blue Barytes from Ouichane, all from Morocco. From China new, very aesthetic, scalenohedral Calcites covered by iridescent Pyrite from maybe Daye? and new Phenakites on/and octahedral Fluorite from the indefatigable Huanggang mines as well as hundreds of (mostly broken) Chalcopyrites with Siderite with very, very, few samples of extraordinary epitactic Tetrahedrite-Chalcopyrite. From South America a new supply of fine green Augelites with Hübnerite and Quartz from Tamboras Mine, few new nice golds from San Luis Mining area, Chala, Peru, and from Congo some small pockets with attractive Azurites from Kimbwe, Kinsevere district, Congo.
Some photos below to share with FMErs, waiting the weekend to complete my vision of Munich 2012.
