Monthly Mineral Chronicles Volume 2 Issue 5

Welcome to volume 2 issue 5 of Monthly Mineral Chronicles. This is a publication pulled together by a mineral collector for mineral collectors.

This month, this 66 page full-colour issue takes a look at a rock swap that I hadn’t been to for 30 years, superb gem minerals at the NY-NJ show, the San Juan Mine, Arizona, new “Ghost Eye” Chinese fluorite and more! It includes:

Thornton Rockswap
NY-NJ Gem Show
Blast from the Past…
San Juan Mine, Gordon Camp, Dragoon Mts., Arizona
In Case You Missed It…
Dealer Focus – Xueyan Jin and Yanna, chinesemineral.cn
Hobart Gem and Mineral Show

Again this month, for all of the excellent images, is the ability to click on the image to bring up a larger version. Not only do you get a bigger version, but in some cases, the image you see published may be a cropped version.

Each month, I will bring you mineral-related content from around the world. There will be a range of topics including mineral news and information, show reports, articles on minerals and localities, a spotlight on individual mineral dealers or collectors, and maybe an editorial now and again.

The focus won’t be restricted to any particular genre. And all of this from just US$1 per month for Patreons and Subscribers. Casual access is available through Lulu. Please use the Contact Us form to become a Subscriber.
