Here they are, my first minerals, kept in a tobacco tin.
I put it into a pipe tobacco tin. Here’s a photo of the outside of the tin, just for grins. Locality info? Who knows? Except for the specular hematite (Mesabi range) and the selenite (Jet, Oklahoma), everything else is simply quien sabe? Keep in mind that I was 12 yrs old at the time, and lacking any sort of mineralogical mentoring. Later, when at Norman, Oklahome, I hung aroung the geology department there, and Bill Hiss took me under his wing, set me on the right path, so to speak. (Author: Ed Huskinson)

Here you can enjoy a Grossular var. Tsavorite crystal of 3.5 (1¼ inches) on 7 cm. (2¾ inches) matrix. It is a member of the garnet group, species Grossular, whose green color is due to trace amounts of vanadium and/or chromium. The excellent color and good transparency make this specimen worthy of being shown in the main Folch collection, it is from a recent find in Madagascar.
This is one of the specimens that has been acquired by the Folch Collection through the sale of their duplicates via Fabre Minerals. (Author: Joan Rosell)

Here’s a photo showing the damage up close and personal. I like to think that a famous German mineralogist scratched the face and then blow-piped it (yes, look at the lower left quadrant of the spinel-twinned crystal. I DON’T CARE. Yes, it’s unfortunate that it has been damaged, but hey, now I can make up a story to go with the damage. And I have a way to show how a blowpipe affects galena. Bottom line, I like it, I bought it for my own enjoyment, and I do not consider it to be an "investment". (Author: Ed Huskinson)

Heulandite
Sgurr nam Boc, Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK
16 cm x 12 cm x 8 cm
The largest heulandite crystal I have collected - it measures 80mm x 50mm. There are smaller heulandite crystals to 25mm and stilbite crystals to 25mm attached to the large crystal, all lustrous, resting on a bed of coloured chabazite crystals to 10mm, and a mesolite spray. The mineral combination appears to be unique to this boulder, near the south end of the beach.
The specimen is repaired - it split in half - right down the middle of the big crystal ! But no way was I going to leave it like that, so I glued the two halves back together. Sorry.

Very large specimen of pink heulandite crystals to 15mm, with a few white stilbite crystals to 20mm. A lucky find - only took me 30 minutes to extract it. Found by crawling under an enormous boulder; it was in another boulder below it. Spent three days breaking rock to find more cavities and only found one more - a smaller cavity - at the end of the third day !

Heulandite + Chabazite + Mesolite
Moonen Bay, Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK
50mm x 30mm x 35mm high
I was not alone on Skye on this occasion: my friend Dave found a small cavity full of ’mesolite’ and when the ’mesolite’ was washed off, some nice heulandite crystals appeared, accompanied by chabazite. A lot of the chabazite occurs as tiny crystals growing on the ’mesolite’ needles, forming white globular masses. The main heulandite crystal measures 10mm x 8mm x 3mm thickness. Collected March/April 2013. (Author: Mike Wood)

Horseflies, also known as Clegs, are nasty. They have a somewhat ’furry’ appearance, sort of dusty-grey colour. You can’t hear them flying. You can’t feel them land. If you’re quick and recognise the sensation you can swipe them off you just as they start to bite; then the bite will only itch a little ! Unlike midges these things are active in bright sunshine. They are about during the months of July and August when it’s warm. It’s best to keep moving when these are around, and keep an eye on them but they are very distracting. They are mainly living in the valleys; it is usual to have several following you as you walk. And they can bite through thin clothing !! (Author: Mike Wood)

Horsefly/Cleg 10mm long
A horsefly yesterday. About the same size as a bluebottle fly, as they are called here. They have a distinctly dusty, soft appearance with a grey-brown colour, and fly and land very quietly. Just as they bite, if you know the feeling, there is about 1-2 seconds to swat it away before the bite hurts. (Author: Mike Wood)
