Mineral ExchangesPanasqueiraite specimens to trade - any body interested?
18th Sep 2009 12:16 UTCJoão Manuel Valente Gomes
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
João Gomes.

I am a mineral collector that specializes in building up a suite of minerals from the deposits of Panasqueira so I am very interested in obtaining a specimen of panasqueiraite. I would also be interested in obtaining any other specimens from this district that you might have available for exchange. For this pupose I have attached some of the better minerals that i can offer from Australia below. let me know if there is anything of interest and we can go from there.
