Hi Geo2!
A warm warm welcome from Italy as well! Any photo of minerals from your country is welcome, so that we all might know it better than what the European press tells us!
Greetings from Italy by Riccardo. _________________ Hi! I'm a collector of minerals since 1973 and a gemmologist. On Summer I always visit mines and quarries all over Europe looking for minerals! Ok, there is time to tell you much much more! Greetings from Italy by Riccardo. |

Hi Riccardo, you know as the saying goes (Bad news sells).
I posted some minerals photos but seems the quality of them aren't that good. Will update with more when I get a chance to the fields.
Thanks |

Sure you do, it's a beautiful vast country , sad is as it all it gets is bad impressions by misinformation media.
I love my country and its geography. |

Hi Geo2 and welcome to this forum!
It is a pleasure for us to have somebody from this part of East Africa; and also especially for me because I am working in an Organization (Medicines Sans Frontieres/ Doctors Without Borders) from Barcelona and daily I am being in contact with people from Karthoum.
Welcome!!!

Thanks Héctor, for the welcome
And I can't tell how I love Khartoum especially in this season (Winter) where there is a good weather and sunny days and a lot of activities that attract specifically Tourists (it is unlike Spanish coasts for sure as there is no crowded beaches or hoards of tourists roaming the streets LOL) . But it is nice and warm and a lot of activities to keep you busy-exploring- this marvelous city and country.
Greetings from Khartoum |

Welcome to the Forum! Our weather here, in the Copper Country of Michigan, is much colder than in Africa. We have snow on the ground until mid-April. _________________ Susan Robinson |
