Angelite is a popular trade name for a variety of Anhydrite that is light blue-grey in colour, semi-transparent, fine grained and marketed as gem material. These specimens, along with most angelite, are from Lima, Peru and were collected near the Casapalca Mine at Casapalca, Huarochiri Province, Lima Department, Peru.
Fluorite octahedron crystals of varying colours from Illinois, USA. These individual crystals are available in various sizes and have been cleaved into these octahedron shapes which is done due to the fluorite minerals points of cleavage which allows it to ‘break’ in four directions. Despite this, they still exhibit, excellent, almost gem quality clarity with very minor inclusions. Such crystals from Illinois are now difficult to come by these days as the fluorspar mines in the areas have long since ceased operations, causing supply of crystals to be exhausted. The crystals are available in various colours, chosen at random. Available in three different sizes, they come supplied in a white card tray with information label.
Small: Approximately 1cm in length
Large: Approximately 2cm in length
All measurements taken at the widest points

Specimens of Salt Pseudomorphs on a limy matrix, collected from the Triassic Aust Cliff in Avon, UK. Salt Pseudomorphs serve as important inicators of paleoenvironmental conditions. They typically form in semi arid (dry) climates, where saline water evaporates, which leaves behind cubic salt crystals. These salt crystals later dissolve, occasionally preserving their cubic imprints These specimens are available in multiple sizes and come supplied in a white card tray with an information label.

Massive Biotite Mica specimens, collected from Arendal, Norway. These specimens depict a “massive” crystal structure, as opposed to the more commonly seen sheets. Like all biotite mica, these specimens are dark in colour, exhibiting a dark grey to black hue. Mica is one of the most common mineral groups, with biotite being the most abundant member. Biotite is very common in igneous and metamorphic rocks, with the dark minerals in granites, pegmatites and gneiss often being due in some part to the presence of this black mica. This massive biotite are available in limited supply so we recommend you move fast if you wish to add a piece to your collection. Supplied in a white card tray with information label.
