Hola Fellow Rockhounds!
I'm on a mission to create a mineral database using examples of members minerals. If you have a collection and would like to help with the development of this please contact me - I'm looking specifically for people who have knowlege and specialize in Jaspers, Petrified Wood, Agates.. or? The goal is to create something helpful in identification - as not all of us can afford / stumble across museum quality pieces.

Help us improve our Rockhound Map - Send information on locations you have stumbled upon!
