First Post-Tucson Update

I just posted my first post-Tucson update, focusing on Asia, Africa, Brazil, and Mexico. Highlights include galena and chalcopyrite from Japan, apatite from Brazil, creedite from Mexico, and a new find of twinned sapphire crystals from Sri Lanka. There are also some nice pegmatite minerals from Afghanistan and Pakistan. My next update will contain specimens from the US and Europe.
