PostPosted: Oct 20, 2015 02:41    Post subject: New find of Chinese Mineral Specimen  

Here are some of my new mineral finds from China. New species are now getting fewer and fewer in China, and it is more difficult to get high quality specimens. We'd like to share with our friends here what we find from time to time.

Hello Jin,
Most of these pieces are not really new finds. For example the Sphalerite locality has been known for many years. Are these new to your personal collection or ?
Just curious.
