A wonderful variety of good specimens Don. I really like the pink fluorite from the Aiguille Verte - it's a biggie ! I attempted to climb the 'Verte back in the early 1990's but ran out of time with only about 100m to go - we were out climbing for 16 hours - far too slow because we were roped together most of the time. I was keeping an eye open for pink fluorite, but didn't see any...
Keep 'em coming Don !
