Description

Spectacular The specimen is of a quality far superior to that known for its species. of the most demanding collectors. I examine hundreds of minerals and choose only those that meet my rigorous quality criteria. I have been very dedicated to mineralogy for 55 years, during these years I have carried out many extraction jobs. I am very demanding with the specimens I acquire. My passion currently is photography, which I share with mineral extraction.
