Ricardo Pimentel’s Zeolite Swap List

Last Updated: 27th Jun 2009

Dear all I would like to swap my zeolite duplicates for other ones for my zeolite collection. I also collect phosphates, arsenates and vanadates. I collect specially miniature and small cabinet size but Tn with loose Xls or rare species will be welcome. All zeolite specimens in this swap list are very good or excellent if not advised. Please write for additional data or picture about any specimen.

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

Hi Ricardo,

I'm a mineral collector from Tasmania, Aus. I'd be very interested in trading some minerals with you! I'm interested in your Ardglen Natrolite, Indian Zeolites, and Uvite from the US. I've got some good zoelites to offer in exchange, or a variety of other Australian minerals. I can send pictures and tell you more if you're interested =]
