Vanadinite crystals are small, hexagonal prismatic crystals that are typically red to brownish-red in color. They have a bright luster and a transparent to translucent appearance. The crystals often form in aggregates, creating intricate and interesting formations. Vanadinite would hardly be as famous if not for the outstanding locality of Mibladen, Morocco. This locality has by far produced the most outstanding crystals of beautiful color and form.

Vanadinite is believed to enhance vitality, motivation, and manifestation, while also promoting clarity, focus, and protection from negativity.

Awesome variscite ball on quartz matrix with good luster.  From a rare location Wiśniówka Wielka in Poland.  Wisniowka is a village located near Kielce in Holly Cross Mountains. Cambrian quarzite sandstones occur there. Trace fossils of trilobite Olenus rarus Orlovskii as well as Diplocraterion and Bergaueria perata can be found in this area. Wiśniówka Wielka is also a well known locality of beautiful crystals of Variscite and Wavellite

This is a quality specimen and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing rock collection.

Name: Variscite and Quartz 
Specimen Size:  Miniature-Sized
Dimensions: 47x42x21 mm / 1.8x1.6x0.8 inches
Weight: 38 grams / 1.3 oz
Origin: Wiśniówka Wielka, Kielce County, Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship, Poland

This is a stunning fragment of the very rare Veevers classified meteorite weighing 1.74 grams. This meteorite is one of only 15 associated with a crater larger than 10 meters across. The crater is about 1 million years old and is one of only 2 craters older than 50,000 years that have meteorites associated with them. This amazingly well preserved specimen measures 13x8x4 mm.

The Veevers crater is located in the Gibson Desert of Western Australia. It has a diameter of 60-80 meters across and a depth of about 6-7 meters. The crater's rim is raised 1.5m above the surrounding plain, and contains exposed rocks thrown from the center of the crater. The sides are gravelly rock with a few larger rocks mixed within. The bottom of the crater is covered with sand.  Veevers is isolated in a vast, flat landscape with no other features in sight. Discovered in the mid-1970's and named by Yeates, A.N., Crowe, R.W.A. & Towner, R.R., in 1976, as The Veevers Crater in honor of Australian geologist Prof. John Veevers, for his work at mapping Western Australia.

In 1984, Dr. Carolyn and Eugene Shoemaker investigated meteorite craters and ancient impact structures throughout Australia. Their search recovered thirty-six small meteoritic fragments from the Veevers crater. Their finds totaled 298.1 grams, and included the largest found to date, 36.3g., now cleaned and coated it weighs 37.0 grams. The Veevers fragments have been described as single crystals of kamacite. Kamacite is a metallic iron with up to 7.5% nickel. Since the Shoemaker trip, more meteorite fragments have been found, bringing the total known weight to around 1 kg. The Veevers crater is naturally rich in iron-rich laterite, which makes recovery of small meteorite fragments hard. It is one of only two impact craters where group IIAB meteorites have been discovered. The other being the Sikhote-Alin craters in Eastern Siberia, Russia.

Would be an exceptional and rare addition to any new or existing collection.  This historically important specimen will come with a ELKK Meteorite Collection and Canagem Collection specimen cards.

This is a stunning Veevers classified meteorite weighing 2.67 grams. Mark Bostick said that the specimen was shaped like a bird claw.  He traded the main mass of this amazing meteorite to TCU.  This amazingly well preserved specimen measures 15x8x7 mm.

This specimen of Vesuvianite was collected at Imilchil in the Er Rachidia Province of Morocco. A great addition to any collection!

It was first discovered on Mount Vesuvius in Italy in the 18th century, hence its name. Vesuvianite typically occurs as a green, brown, yellow, or blue-green crystal, and is often found in metamorphic and igneous rocks. The alternate name, Idocrase, is from the Greek eidos “form”, and krasis “mixture”, because Vesuvianite often appears to combine the crystal forms of other minerals. It is used as a gemstone.

A volcanic bomb is a type of volcanic rock that contains crystals and has been ejected during a volcanic eruption. These are minerals that are commonly found in the Earth's mantle and crystallize as magma cools.

Volcanic bombs are large clots of lava that are ejected from a volcano during an explosive eruption. They can vary in size, and their shapes are often streamlined due to their molten nature as they are thrown through the air. 

This piece has been cut to show the pale crystals which are showcased beautifully against the surrounding black lava crust. 

Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

Cave calcite is not actually calcite, but aragonite which forms within caves, mines and moist areas that are rich in limestone. Formations occur as stalactites and stalagmites, typically as botryoidal or feathery branches.

Cave calcite appears in many colors ranging from clear, to milky white, and rusty oranges. These colors, in addition to their funky, tree-like formations, make cave calcite an exciting addition to any collection. The specimen is in good condition.
