|
|
Hi everyone! I decided to show my collection of minerals. The collection isn't large, but it is growing fast. In childhood I was always interested in different stones in the street, but never thought about collecting and studying them. For the past 5 years I have learned a lot about the mysterious and enigmatic world of minerals, and that has become my hobby.
What can I say about myself. I'm 28 years old, and I've been collecting minerals for 4 years. To organize the collection I am using lignup multicollector for minerals. It's a very handy program. I have only to indicate the stone size, weight, color, photos, etc, and then I get a professional report about each mineral.
In my collection there are amethyst, apatite, orange calcite, Baryte (northern Caucasus), cavansite (India's rose), rhinestone (Turkey), tourmaline, turkenit and others. I will upload photos and you can write what you think about my rocks :)
Yesterday made my favorite case.

Hello Jackman,
Welcome to the Forum.
When uploading photos of your collection, you can include up to 15 photos in the same post. It will save you time, and keep the list of new posts cleaner. Also, be sure to include as much locality information as possible with each specimen and the size.
We look forward to seeing more of your collection.
Michael

Hi, Jackman, welcome to FMF.
Please read the rules of the collection section here https://www.mineral-forum.com/message-board/viewtopic.php?t=390 .
We always write the measures of the specimens, the precise locality, and the IMA species name better than varieties, e. g. 'Quartz (variety quartz amethyst)' instead of 'amethyst'.
Please don't create a new post for every picture, you can include up to 15 in the same post.
If you send me a PM with the measures of these specimens I will add them here. Thank you.
