| Love the orange tinge of the hemimorphite. It's a wonderfully colourful group of Mexican minerals that you show.

Hi Don. Nice specimens! I like the Rutile and Quartz (1253 jpg) and find the little 'dog' (Adamite specimen 1262 jpg) interesting. Thank you for showing.

Thank you for your nice comments Ru and Pierre. Pierre, that "little dog" was on the back of the Cuprian Adamite.
