Hello, i am very pleased to be a member of FMF now. I read this forum since many years with a lot of interest, and hope that I can also contribute sometimes a little bit.
About my person: I am 55 and a geologist (and mineralogist), working since many years in tunnel construction, especially in China now since 6 years. Collecting was the reason to study earth sciences in my young years. During and after my studies, I quit collecting because i was confronted with stones every day. Since my boys discovered my old collection, they also started with minerals, so I did again and continued until today. No end in sight...

Welcome, Volkmar! It's great to see mineralogy being passed down to the younger generations. We look forward to your contributions!

Hi there,
Welcome from the Netherlands. It's nice to a bit younger face around here. That way I ain't the one of the few around here!

Hi Volkmar!
And let me say a "benvenuto" to you from Italy! I know very well Austria as a very rich country for minerals (Habachtal and Zillertal mainly) and I visited it so many a time
Willkommen aus Italien, welcome from Italy!
Greetings by Riccardo.
