One of the most admirable facts in US is the great quality of the mineralogical magazines and not only this, also their friendly relationship. A model for all worldwide agents related with the mineralogy.

Below you have the text written by Wendell Wilson, editor of the Mineralogical Record, devoted to Marie Huizing. Very kind, right? ;-)

Marie certainly deserves all of the tributes cited above. She is doing a remarkable job as editor of Rocks & Minerals, and she devotes extraordinary amounts of personal time and effort to make the magazine as fine as it is. She is also a very modest person and is very embarrassed over the attention given her with this thread.

What nice tributes these are! Marie is such a lovely person and such a joy to know. Not only that, she is wonderful to her authors, making the experience of publishing in Rocks & Minerals a pleasure and a real honor!
Best wishes,
Elise
