I loved this time of day, as the perpetual noisy city dropped to absolute silence. Not a vehicle was on...will close its doors this year as a result of the City of Tucson taking over the property for residential...for Gilgit. We made a few stops in this largest city of the Northern Areas, both prearranged and by luck...from the bed of the Kotakioawa River at Itoigawa City, central Japan. Associated mineral; are jadeite, natrolite...perrierite ~ Jadeite from the Itoigawa-Ohmi district, Niigata Prefecture, Japan. Eur. J. Mineral., 14, 1119-1128 |
