Sterling Mine, Sterling Hill, Ogdensburg, Sussex County, New Jersey, USA

Dear US pics supervisor,

Photo ID 557080 is not a specimen photo.

Photo type must be changed.

Thanks.

Actually, this photo just needs to be linked, i.e. made a sister image to photo: http://www.mindat.org/photo-557079.html

I am unable to fix this problem. Thanks

Michael, yes, you can fix it yourself:

1- Edit your picture. Active the box "I would like this photo deleted" and click on "Update Photo and Information".

After the pic is removed, upload it again as child photo taking care to click on the tab "Other Photograph", click on "Tipe of Photo" and choose "Mineral Label". Then click on "Update Photo and Information" and it's done.

I don't know if an administrator can do it more easily...

Cheers.

Josele that is not the way I would do it as you don't need to delete & re-upload again.

1) go to homepage find photo & click edit.

2) Click the tab 'other photographs' or add the size in description box (which is always required).

I have now explained to Michael on how to add child photo's.

Should you want to replace a photo with a better one of the same specimen you do not need to request a delete, just add the photo in the normal way via the edit button of the photo to be replaced.

Thanks Debbie,

And thanks Michael for including a pic of the old labels. I do not recognize the first label either (doesn't look like Roebling's handwriting, nor does it include his name or initials on the front, which was his custom), but to give some reference as to dating, the second label attributable to the Seaman collection are often also noted as emanating from the Dr. Lucius L. Hubbard collection, who was the State Geologist of Michigan from 1893 to 1899. All the pieces I've acquired with these Seaman/Hubbard labels also bore the Michigan College of Mines collection label. Arthur E. Seaman was head of the Department of Geology and Mineralogy at the college by 1899, and was instrumental in assembling it's collection with the assistance of Dr. Hubbard, (who later served as a member of the Board of Control of the college), and Dr. G.A. Koenig, who was Head of the Chemistry Department at the college by 1892.

Is this matter resolved? All photos are together on minID.

Thanks
