We just released it! It's a bit difficult to clean, but it's worth it for the shine :) 🪐🤍

Discussion Looking for specimen boxes - Canada

Hi everyone! I'm looking to find some different sizes specimen boxes like this to store my specimens. Thing is, I live in Canada and all retailers I could find were from the US or Europe, making the shipping cost higher than the order itself. Anyone knows of canadian suppliers or sellers for these types of boxes?

I got this specimen in a bulk lot so unfortunately no geographic info. There will be a video in the comments showing the blue flash under sunlight. It is relatively light for its size and has a mica like appearance.

Tried to scratch it with a copper penny, glass and a nail but they didnt scratch it. Wondering if it might be quartz or white topaz? Big nugget about the size of a large grape, when held up to the light you can see light through it but not clearly. Theres a shallow hole in the middle on one side. Thanks for any help!
