Pretty freaky looking aren't they? They are pyrite concretion on the belemnite guard as quoted in Mineral Observer publication. From the River Dzheganas, Northern Caucasus, Russia. _________________ Minerals you say? Why yes, I'll take a dozen or so... |

Thanks, the belemnite looked like it was made of copper or brass. |

Gail,
Thank you so very much for all of the expended effort to write up the Tucson show report! Even though I make the Tucson show every year, I always find new information in your report that I somehow missed. It was most enjoyable seeing you, Jim and Elaine and your specially selected minerals, too! Love that linarite! One of my favorite places and one of the earliest I dug (1971). I will see you all at the next show.
