Mineral ExchangesFor trade: Uvite after serendibite crystals

16th Aug 2014 00:23 UTCPhil M. Belley Expert

A select few specimens of uvite-spinel-calcite pseudomorphs after serendibite crystals from Portage-du-Fort, Quebec. Small find and pockets were rare. Smaller crystals (5-8 mm) most well-formed. Larger (centimetres) not as idiomorphic.


Looking for: Good crystals of silicates, oxides, or supergene alteration minerals. Special interest in corundum, spinel, garnet, tanzanite, pegmatite minerals. Thumbnails preferred. No interest in calcite, quartz, or sulphides.


Example of what pseudomorphs look like (see http://www.mindat.org/photo-551049.html ):
