Here you'll find photos of some of the Talc specimens we sent to our Gold-Level members this month, for $26.50, including shipping in the U.S. and our highly detailed, in-depth 10 page write-up on Talc. Deluxe-level specimens range in size from about 3" by 2" to 3.5" by 2.5".

Below are photos of typical smithsonite specimens we'll be sending to Gold-Level members in October. The Gold-level membership costs $26.50/per month, which includes shipping to your door in the U.S. and our highly detailed write-up on smithsonite, and the link near the bottom of this page will take you to the "Join our Club" page. The specimens pictured here are between 3" by 2" and 3.5" by 2.5", and are on matrix, as you can see. Actually, these photos don't do justice to the true beauty of the colors of smithsonite. Similar specimens typically sell for much more, when they are even available!

Smithsonite, El Refugio Mine, Choix, Sinoloa, Mexico

We wanted to give you an idea of the variety among the agate slices we featured in September, so here are photos of some the agate slices we sent to Gold-Level members. The photos on the right show the same agate slice as on the left, but backlit with a simple flashlight. You're welcome to request one when you join our Club--just mention it in the "Special Instructions" when you check out using our secure Shopping Cart. The link to use to join is near the bottom of this page.
