Ricardo Pimentel’s Zeolite Swap List

Boa tarde!
O meu nome é Vasco Trancoso, moro nas Caldas da Rainha, também tenho "Home page" no Mindat, e julgo que seria interessante conhecermos as colecções de ambos e eventualmente fazer alguma troca. Tenho pouco especímens repetidos (3 no caso de Zeólitos). Se concordar pode telefonar-me para o 967004696.

Caro Ricardo,

Apesar de zeolitos não ser o meu forte, tenho alguns da Madeira, Estados Unidos, Índia e Rep. Checa. Gostaria de receber algumas fots suas de zeolitos portugueses. sousanb@gmail.com
