Rose Quartz Crystals | Formula | /Images/0750a.jpg /Images/0750b.jpg /Images/0750c.jpg | Pitorra Mine, Galiléia, Minas Gerais, Brazil | Acquired 2001 | Quartz Crystals | Dumortierite | From the collection of John Betts (#14099). From the collection of A. Stevenson (#750). From the collection of Luiz Menezes; pencil notation on back of label reads "Benler |T), 3-". | #0750 | Hardness | Streak | Specific Gravity | The 'rose' in 'rose quartz' is dumortierite. Dumortierite usually prevents the formation of quartz crystals, which is why Rose Qartz is almost always found in a massive form. To have a cluster of classic quartz crystals that are rose quartz is somewhat unusual. |

Trinitite | Formula | /Images/picture.jpg | White Sands, New Mexico | Created July 16, 1945, acquired 2002 | Matrix of sand | Many Secondary Minerals in trace amounts, some still radioactive | Trinitite was created by the explosion of the first atomic bomb on July 16, 1945; it is irradiated, fused, sand/soil. These specimens came from the first atomic bomb test at the 'Trinity Site'; the type locality. The sand on the back of the 'green glass slag' matches independently collected specimens of White Sands' sand, and no other,that I have in my collection (there are both fakes, and specimens from later bombs).
I acquired the specimen from the collection of Jon Gladwell, Ph.D., who gave the history as "I got them from an "old" mineral dealer who in turn got them from a guy who used to work at White Sands. They were acquired in the early 60's, and were given to me in an old cigar box which had to be at least from the 40's. So I am reasonably sure they are authentic.". I purchased a small number of the minature specimens Jon still had available. I have no doubts that they are authentic. |
