Pre-Tucson Update
14th January 2008
This is our last update before we leave for the Tucson Show. In it we have included a sample of what we will be taking to the show, except that we have not included the Celestines from Torà , Lleida, Spain, as we have not had enough time to prepare them for this update.
So, there are various Goethites from Tharsis, an exceptional Rubellite from the Jonas Mine, Brazil, an Australian gold with gold and silver tellurides, which have come from the Spanish and French collections we recently bought. There is also a selection from the recent 'harvest' from the Folch duplicates, a Uruguayan Amethyst with Calcite and a range of high quality material that we have recently bought: Chinese Scheelite with Beryl, Madagascan Corundum (Ruby), Malawian Arfvedsonite, Kazakhstan Sphalerite or the Mexican Legrandites from Flor de Peña Mine.

If you are aiming to visit the Tucson show, you will find us in Room 164 of the InnSuites hotel. We will open on the 1 February and close on the 15 February (inclusive). Joan Rosell, Pares or I will be there to look after you. If you want more information on our presence please use this link:
