Mineral specimens were, and remain, my first true rock love.
Malachite is one of my top 5 favorites to collect.
Picked up 3 new pieces last night, thought I'd share here.
eBay pictures as I haven't received them yet. (so pictures will expire someday)
All from the Congo
6 x 4.5 x almost 2 inches - just shy of 2 lbs
Largest piece - 6.5 x 4.25 x 4.5 inches - almost 3 lbs
back side
smaller piece 4.25 x 3.5 x almost 2 inches - almost a pound
Gonna have to do some display case rearranging when they arrive. Something tells me that getting another display case wouldn't go over well. I'm good at sensing such things!
Anyway, I like this stuff and thought I'dpost these to get out of doing a project I have to do today anyway share the pics.
