Today I took my annual visit in the Marburg Museum, it's really a privilege to live 4 km away from a great mineral museum ;-) I tried to focus on specimens that were new and not already shown in the previous reports.
(Concerning the specimen sizes: The black labels measure between 4 and 5 cm, the few green ones that are with the Russian minerals about 7 cm.)

I think most of the German mineral and locality names should be easy to translate ;-)
(BRD = Bundesrepublik Deutschland = Federal Republic of Germany.)

Thanks for posting Tobi. You are lucky to live so close to a museum that has such a nice mineral display.

Hi. Great images. Wow.
I'm particularly interested in picture 1580 - the specimen up front, the dark one, because I'm finding a lot of that in southeast Colorado.
What is it exactly? Pyrite?

The mineral in question appears to be fluorite.

| Joseph is right, this is a fluorite from England.
