As always Mike, I am always astonished at the high quality of photographs and specimens you post. I especially like the quartz from Uruáchic, Municipio Uruáchic, Chihuahua, Mexico (StrawQtzSm1.jpg) and the chalcocite is very neat (ChalcoFlambeau.jpg).

The group of calcite crystals from the Malmberget MIne was collected by myself and in my collection for many years.
