Blue AragoniteAragonite is an incredibly variable mineral, and the second most common form of Calcium Carbonate on Earth. Pure Aragonite is typically colorless or white, but chemical impurities can turn it into a range of spectacular colors. These specimens are a beautiful sky blue with fine crystalline surface in unique whorls or spherical shapes throughout.

often including scale and other soft tissue traces against a high contrast laminated limestone slab

intricately patterned fluorite usually found in cuboidal crystals

Creedite is named for the place of its initial discovery

highly variable Chalcedony spheres are almost geode-like in appearance and one can clearly see the process of geode or agate formation in progress in each specimen

These remarkable yellow fluorite crystals originate from China and range in color from rich honey to pastel gold

Each contains at least one (most several) clearly visible insect

with nodules and delicate filigree-like branches

pyrite is an abundant sulfide mineral that despite some similarities can easily be distinguished from actual gold by its crystal form (typically cuboidal) and being much harder whereas gold is soft and malleable
