Thanks Gail,
the China exhibit at the U of A is spectacular and you are making a serious good job at showing the quality and diversity of the specimens on exhibit.
One suggestion, it is always difficult to appreciate the size of these specimens. As a scale, can we use the labels? My recollection, they are all the same size, approximately 6-7 cm across. Correct?
Knowing this will provide a better idea and appreciation of the sizes of the specimens to the viewers.
Cheers
Jean

I believe they are just slightly taller than average American business cards. But similar in length. Thanks Jean!

Thanks for showing us those breathtaking Chinese minerals! ... And no matter how large the labels are - those specimens are extraordinary!
