Nice greetings from Austria!
I am a visitor of FMF for some time, so I think it's time to get the membership for this forum.
I am collecting minerals since I was about 10 years old. Why? I don't know, may be "Morbus Mineralis" - healing impossible. ;)
My favourites are Calcite, Wulfenite, Sulfides,..., Lower Austria, Alpine clefts, Bad Bleiberg, the former area of the k & k monarchy of Austria,..., crystalography. I have a library with more of 300 books about mineralogy, local mineralogy, geology, crystalography, mining history, and tons of mineral magacines and scientific papers from around the world (I whish, I have the money, that I spent for my literature). So, I'm a little bit a citizen scientist - if you like this term.
I do not collecting minerals only for their beauty, I am very interested on their scientific background.
I am also a member of mindat.
Martin

Hi Martin!
A warm warm welcome from Italy as well! GrùB Gott und herzlich willkommen am Forum!!!
I like also Austrian minerals, more than once I have been in Schwaz in Tirol, in Habachtal and in Zillertal. Once I was in Hartberg, close to Burgenland, in order to visit the serpentine mines.

Thank you all for this very nice welcome!
Riccardo,
I will you show some specimens from this classical locations. Please have some patience. I'm a freelancer and the summertime is very hard to me. At the moment, my profession do not allow using much time for my obsession.
Best whishes to all

Hola Jordi,
I just joined the forum and wanted to introduce myself.
My name is Eugenio (Geno) and am a native of Puerto Rico (one grandmother from Barcelona). I live in San Francisco, California, and I just joined the SF Gem and Mineral Society. I am biologist by training and work in the global health field.
I have been collecting rock and fossils since I was a child but have neglected my collection for years. I am hoping to re-catalog all my specimens so expect many request to help me identify them! I will adhere to your high standards for ID requests.
Many thanks for this terrific forum.
Saludos,
Geno |

Hi Geno! A warm warm welcome from Italy as well! Puerto Rico is fully unknown to me, especially from a mineralogical point of view, but it should also be very interesting!

Hello Everyone,
My name is Leon Hupperichs, i am 46 years old and live in a small town in the most southern part of the Netherlands.
I am a new member here but as a active mindat-member many will know my photo's already.
I started collecting minerals in 1991 and my main collecting focus is on German classics and British fluorites.
Hope i can bring some nice new pictures in the FMF.
Regards,
Leon. |
