GLAUBERITE CRYSTALS
A lovely specimen of Glauberite Crystals. Initially these specimens are clear when first fished out of the mud with cut and bloodied hands. They turn white after contact with the Oxygen in the air. The fossicker who fished this one told me the second day was worse when cuts on his fingers were roughed up again. This happens when feeling around deep in the mud for them. Great fun. This is a rare and unusual Aussie mineral. The last big one found in an old box.

AMAZONITE CRYSTAL PIKES PEAK
A super Amazonite Crystal Pikes Peak. It features good crystal formation and the sought after aqua blue green colour. Most Amazonite on the market is the massive rock from Madagascar or Brazil, with iron staining and pale colour. This Crystal stands out in comparison as a collectible piece from the best location. There is a crack all the way through the crystal shown clearly in second pic. It was part way through but with a little nudge, it’s now two pieces. The crack inside has refilled with calcium from the matrix. It is hard to find decent Amazonite Crystals.

GREEN TOURMALINE CONSTRUCT
GREEN TOURMALINE CONSTRUCT. Just to be quite clear this is not a natural specimen. It is an example of fakery, aka fake. This is a good bad and ugly specimen. Good is the quality of a beautiful green natural Tourmaline crystals, worth the money. The bad is someone intended to palm this fake off as a natural specimen. It has been glued to conceal a broken crystal and they did a pretty bad glue job too. A typical type of specimen and the location is also renowned for similar fakes. The large green Tourmaline crystals is glued into where another different Tourmaline crystal broke off. All the crystals are real and the big one is great.
This is a construct where a specimen has been glued into a matrix. It was in the collection for many years and originally purchased from a retired dealer. Hopefully you all look at your specimens in particular gem specimens with a 10 x mag and strong light. Also fluorescent UVA and UVB can be helpful in detecting glues. They are well knowledged in their art and sprinkle crystal dust on top of the glue to conceal it. One of the give always on this glue job is the angle is wrong in orientation with the quartz crystal. Repaired specimens are OK (to some people) and always labeled as such repaired or R in the title. This specimen sits freely on a perspex stand.
