Field CollectingSummer Vacation in Britanny / Bretagne

30th Jul 2014 12:36 UTCThomas Krassmann (2)

Hello from Germany


We are planning to do a summer family vacation in Brittany / Bretagne in late August / beginning of September this year.


Are there any mineral collectors around in the area for trading / exchanging of local minerals, especially rare or aesthetic minerals ?

Also maybe somebody is interested in a mutual collecting trip ?


Looking forward for your esteemed reply

When we were at the Ste. Marie aux Mines show in 2008 I found a man who was selling staurolite twins he had dug up on his property in Brittany. Unfortunately I do not have his name or contact information. The twins were nice crystals, so I know for sure there is one mineral to be found in Brittany. That's all the information I have, for what it is worth. I hope you have a great time on your vacation there this summer.
