9VX-AFUTremolite ◻Ca2Mg5(Si8O22)(OH)2
Dimensions: 1.8 cm x 1.1 cm x 0.9 cm
This tremolite was collected when Justin and I visited Scott Wallace in July 2007. Justin suggested that I put it in my collection because it is a nice example of a terminated crystal from this locality.

V5U-0VDCorundum Al2O3
Dimensions: 2 cm x 1.3 cm x 1.4 cm
Justin got this from Pu in some sort of trade. It is so dark that it is nearly black... however, if you hold it up to the light it is translucent.

EFP-P9HAlmandine Fe2+3Al2(SiO4)3
Dimensions: 2.4 cm x 2.2 cm x 1.6 cm
This is one of the large, well formed garnet crystals that Justin and I collected in August 2007. The day we went there was rainy and cool, but that didn't deter us, and we came home with lot's of nice terminated crystals.

J1H-346Rheniite ReS2
Dimensions: 2.2 cm x 1.8 cm x 1.9 cm
This was one of two specimens that I bought from Gunnar Farber right before we left fall Denver this year. (9/2008) I like this specimen because the Rheniite sparkles in the matrix quite pleasingly.
