I recently came across a couple old pieces from this great locality. This one is clearly "Fluorite ps Calcite" but I am not sure whether it is from "West Camp" or from "Mina El Carmen" are they interchangeable? Enjoy this picture - the orange crystals I believe are manganocalcite that are strongly flourescent!

Sorry, but i’m feeling hungry. Looking at your photo i’m seeing rice, carrot and beef fried in soy sauce. Food themed mineral collecting could be a new trend?add some kidney ore hematite ? Sorry again its a cold sunday afternoon here need food and a nap.
