Mindat.org is at the Munich Show! Thursday is the set-up day so I have taken the chance to make a few photos of new things on display in the International Mineral Pavillion, where the major international dealers - and mindat.org! are on display.

Yes, we're here until Sunday - come and find us! Hall B2

So... A quick look around the dealers in the pavillion to see whats new. The most excitement was from Italian Dealer Ricardo Prato - who had some amazing new fluorites from Pakistan:
