I am looking for good quality specimens of crystalline fluorite from the Rotherhope Fell mine, Cumbria, England.

Associated minerals are "optional", as long as the fluorite crystals compose the main display area of the specimen.

All help welcome!

My name is João Gomes and I’m Portuguese, at this moment I’ve several specimens/samples of Panasqueiraite in possession, they vary in size from cabinets (one specimen) to miniatures, all sample are massive of course and all associated or with massive quartz and some also associated with massive sulfides like chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite/ pyrite and wolframite. I know this may not be the most sought after mineral species from Panasqueira Mine, massive stuff never was the most sought after material from this mine but it sure is one of the rarest species and still wasn’t found in any other site/mine worldwide, except the type and only Local for it - Panasqueira Mine of course. All these specimens I have exactly matches the photos of Panasqueiraite posted here in the Mindat.org mineral gallery.

Perhaps there’s some one who maybe interested on having a sample of it, if so please contact me via private messages and we may trade.

Thank you so much,

Cheers,:)-D

So it doesn't seem like many Americans are trading much these days. Am I wrong? I don't have much to offer, on one hand, and on the other hand I'm pretty particular about what I want. But I'm just wondering if there is much trading going on; and not even between Americans, so much as trading pieces from localities in the US.

Specifically I'd be interested in trying to trade for AZ material. But since that seems unlikely, maybe someone can explain this phenomenon? The general lack of trading going on over here? Or am I incorrect?]]> Ben Kirchner Swap Shop Fri, 06 Nov 2009 05:04:15 +0000 http://www.mindat.org/forum.php?read,8,152038,152038#msg-152038 http://www.mindat.org/forum.php?read,8,152038,152038#msg-152038
