You have a great suite of Russian pegmatite specimens. The Vodorozhdelnye Vorobyevite (Morganite) is superb and as good as they get. Very sharp and fine!!!! I have only see one slightly larger one. Unusually large and fine Svetlinskoys goshenite!
I have a deep golden Heliodore from there. The Sherlova Gora specimens are booth very fine!!! Did you get my mail?

I can exchange one specimen of morganite from Vodorazdelnaya... size is 70 х 45 х 32 mm

You're welcome! I also discovered your personal site pegmatite(dot)ru, and i enjoyed browsing it. Not only your beautiful mineral galleries, but also your aesthetic photography galleries and your travelling reports were fascinating. Good to have a new member here on FMF with such enthusiastic appreciation for the beauty of nature (not only concerning minerals).
Cheers!
