Thank you so much for sharing your collection, your Azurite ( https://www.mineral-forum.com/message-board/viewtopic.php?p=7361#7361 ) caught my attention the most.
They are ALL wonderful!

I am very impressed by the demantoid from Madagascar - what a perfect specimen! Stunning size for a good demantoid specimen and perfect (large + great colour + supreme quality) crystals. Just a great example of fine garnet, congratulations!
Glückauf!

| Thanks Tobias. I like very much garnets and I´m very happy with my demantoide. I spend a lot of money in the specimen but was like a "arrow shot".

Hi Granate
Now I know why I couldn't see you in Munich, you was too busy taken all the interesting specimens before I could reach them!!! I'll be in Madrid for Christmas, may be there.... :-)
Thanks for the pictures
