PostPosted: Sep 12, 2011 05:16    Post subject: Collection of Barbie  

Hello, I want to share my collection with you after a long break I'm again here, I realised that I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Fatma Iam from Turkey. I'm not a professional but I love stones specially gemstones, most of my collection have been collected in the last 3 month.

Just click on the Write a REPLY button and add more images. I believe the limit is 15 photos per post.

Could you be more specific about the localities? Turkey, China and Afghanistan are very large areas. It is crucial for mineral collectors to know as much as possible about the place where a specimen was found.

Please, try it.

Thanks,

Yes I forgot to write it. The Turkish specimens were found in Konya, the China ones were found in Henan but I dont have any idea about Afghanistans :(

How to write the specimen size

Barbie90, this is not a right way of doing so: 17.13.8mm.

The rightest format would be, in this case, either 17 mm x 13 mm x 8 mm or 17mm x 13mm x 8mm. Albeit not mathematically correct, I think this other format might also be acceptable for short: 17 x 13 x 8 mm. Of course, feel free to replace the unit by the one you prefer. Millimeters, centimeters, inches and so on are okay. Even kilometers and miles (although I would not recommend them).

I hope this can help.

Barbie,

I locked this thread until I can clean your posts and keep it "normalized". When it will be ready I will open back the thread and then Barbie, please watch carefully your captions rebuilded and please try to use the same system I will use, in order your captions looks like other captions of this section, so with more or less the same aspect / shape.

Thank you
