Tsavorite is a variety of the garnet family, specifically a green grossular garnet. Its color ranges from a vivid green to an intense greenish-blue.  Tsavorite was first discovered in the 1960s in Tanzania and was later found in Kenya.  Due to its scarcity, it is considered one of the rarest and most valuable garnets.

Tsavorite is relatively durable with a hardness of 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale. This makes it suitable for various types of jewelry, though care should be taken to avoid exposure to extreme heat or harsh chemicals.

Tsavorite is associated with prosperity, abundance, and vitality. Some consider it a stone of growth and regeneration, both in the physical and spiritual sense.

Cubic and crystallized pyrite matrix with Marmatite and Quartz crystal cluster.

Some of the more important Colorado localities for specimens of well-crystallized pyrite include mines at cli- max, Gilman, Leadville, Rico, Ouray, Telluride, Creede, Alicante, Alice, and State Bridge. Specimens from each of these localities often have distinctive crystal habits and mineral associations.  The Eagle mine is probably best known for its pyritohedral Pyrite specimens. This cluster is a good representative Eagle mine Pyrite showing typical striated pyritohedra with sharp, lustrous faces plus some Marmatite opaque black iron-rich crystals.

This top specimen is in very good condition. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

This is a specimen of Star Mica or Muscovite and Quartz cluster.  These clusters show crystals that grow in sheets or book formations.  It is silvery gold with good transparency when held up to the light.  The name Muscovite comes from the term Muscovy Glass which was a name for the thick sheets of Mica used as a substitute for glass Russia. The name Mica is derived from the Greek word that means to split.

On this nice specimen, the matrix faces are covered with beautiful golden yellow point stars of muscovite mica, a typical shape for this rare mica formation. The stars are the result of twinning; the points show a bit of wear but this does not detract from the beauty of such a piece.

Malachite is perhaps the one of the most popular minerals for collectors, as its rich patterned coloration in shades of green is unique among gems. It is a beautiful decorative stone. Malachite’s low hardness makes it easy to work, though it still takes a polish very well. These qualities, combined with ready availability, make malachite a popular choice for lapidary artistry. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

Here we have for you a superb looking Dhofar 020 classified meteorite weighing 82.14 grams. Its dimensions are 70x32x32 mm.  Found 10 March 2000 in Dhofar, Oman, in the Arabian Peninsula this H4/5 classified chondrite has a TKW of 256 Kg with a shock stage of S4 and weathering grade of W3 by the Russian Academy of Sciences, USSR.

The following is an excerpt from Mark Bostick's review of this meteorite:  "Dhofar 020 is a ordinary stone chondrite meteorite. The meteorite is high in free metal and therefore falls in the H class. S4 tells it is highly shocked. Slices of the meteorite, show veins of the cosmic impact created mineral Ringwoodite, although fractures in the stone tend to hide this some. It almost appears to me to have splinted upon impact. The meteorite falls in 4-5 petrology class, a reference to how metamorphed the meteorite is from its original state. This is judged by studying a thin section of the meteorite, most visually at the chondrules, a feature unique to stone meteorite. In a thin section under polarized light, pyroxene chondrules seem more common then their olivine pair. Still some regions in the meteorite show scattered patches of bright olivine inclusions. These are fairly rare, at least on my thin section, and most of the meteorite's olivine and pyroxene, some of the easier things to see in a thin section, appear to have went through a metamorphism, and have "melted" into the matrix and are at times undistinguishable."

This piece displays extremely well showing a beautiful crust, superb shape and good size. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

Sharp lustrous metallic crystals makes this top specimen of Skutterudite most beautiful and unique.  Some pearly white Calcite is intergrown between crystals.  Although most Skutterudite are uninteresting in form, several localities have produced sharp, lustrous crystals that are striking in aesthetics like this one.

The Bou Azer District, Morocco, produces the best examples of Skutterudite, in large, lustrous crystals, often in a cuboctadral shape.  Skutterudite may partially alter to pink Erythrite. Skutterudite is named after its type locality of Skutterud, Norway. 

This specimen is in very good condition. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.
