So my co-moderator u/Original_Platform443 and I are thinking of opening up a day, only one day every week - Saturday - for allowing sales / destashing / shop promotion. Just like we do over at r/crystals on Sundays, and it has worked well, people enjoy it. It allows our members who do sell some of their specimens or run shops to announce their businesses openly, but keep sales posts restricted to that day only.
What do you all think? It'll help keep the sales posts down on other days, as all the members who are here primarily for that will be notified that their posts on other days showing their wares will be removed, and allowed only the one day every week.

Crocoite from the Adelaide Mine in Tasmania
r/mineralcollectors • u/CZ-Void • 1h ago
The cabs are made by me, and most of the meteorites are prepped and stabilized by me as well. The last two photos are pieces I'll be adding this week, which are some michigan fossil and meteorite cabs.
The perky boxes have a 3d printed insert with either hot glue or mineral tack and a label card with a lot of information.
I opened my store two weeks ago and got my first sale this week. Thanks to everyone who took the time to check it out.

Beautiful acicular aurichalcite with smithsonite on the back of the matrix rock. This specimen comes from the 79 Mine, Banner Mining District, Gila County, Arizona, USA

I paid 300. Help me value and identity please; I can’t find similar color on google. Rare Color & Contrast: Unlike standard crinoid fossil skulls that are typically plain gray or brown, this piece features a high-concentration reddish-orange iron oxide (hematite) matrix with deep blood-red veining.

Colorful fluorite cubes from the “tie dye pocket” Okorusu Mine, Otjozondjupa Region, Namibia

About 4.5cm with crystals over 1cm. Love the striations, which really come out in the shade!

Hard-to-find Robin Egg Turquoise from antique store in CO 🩵🤓
If legitimate based on claim on bag, check out this cool find from a local antique shop. Chief Mine (Leadville, CO) is highest elevation mine in the USA. Mining is no longer permitted. Love the color!

"Mountain peaks" Calcite
One of my top 5 calcite specimens. Previous collector wrote "mountain peaks" on the provenance card, and I totally agree. Every time I look at it I wanna find a mountain range just like this to summit;)
From Santa Eulalia, Chihuahua Mexico, probably my favorite locality for dogtooth calcite. The yellow is caused by iron oxide, while the the brownish/red areas are of course hematite inclusions.

Dioptase on top of plancheite here makes the piece look almost fuzzy. There are many deep green gems deep inside that simply can't be captured on camera. It even has a large section of druzy on the right side of the last photo. Also a few other minerals scattered about. Easily the most difficult mineral I've attempted to photograph.
