21st Oct 2009

I got a new specimen today, some native Iron from the type locality on Disko island of Greenland
Not one of my most attractive specimens, but looks aren't everything!

Disko-iron is fascinating !
I wanted to go there last year, made it into the south of Greenland, but did not make it to Disko...
I have a native iron from the old finds at Buhl http://www.mindat.org/loc-29151.html) and it's very precious to me...
Cheers! Frank
