Antimony Sb 1297b 1297a 1297c 1297d Port Quinn Mine, Port Quinn, Cornwall, UK. acquired 2004 Quartz Galena and Chalcopyrite and several unidentified minerals From the collection of Wild About Rocks, #110296. They described this specimen as "Native Elements: Antimony, Sb, occurs in hydrothermal veins with various sulfide ores. It is rare, and most Antimony is found as its sulfide, Stibnite. Small amounts of Antimony are alloyed with Lead or other soft metals to strengthen them for use, for example as battery plates and cable coverings.
This specimen consists of a quartz matrix in which Antimony is dispersed as small shiny crystalline masses. There�are also two other sulfides, Galena, which is cubic as opposed to rhombohedral, and Chalcopyrite, which occurs as brassy crusts. The interest of the specimen comes from its rarity as a British specimen. From Port Quinn Mine, Port Quinn, Cornwall, UK.".
I would add that Port Quinn is near Tintagel, where King Arthur's legendary castle was, and Dozmary Pool, the last resting place of Merlin's magical sword Excalibur. 1297 Hardness Streak Specific Gravity Crystal Form(s)

Their description read, in part, "Borates are a complex group of approximately 50 minerals, containing Boron and Oxygen in combination with metals. The fundamental building clock of borates is a Boron ion surrounded by three Oxygen ions in the same plane, (BO₃) 3-. This Borate triangle, like the Silica tetrahedron can form an almost infinite variety of chains, rings and sheets, making the Borates similar to the many structural variations found in the Silicate Class of minerals.
Hilgardite is a rare Borate mineral. It is usually found with�Halite (Common Salt) in salt domes or in Potash deposits. It displays either� fibrous or granular masses. Crystals are very uncommon.
The specimen is�a matrix free specimen of Hilgardite and Boarcate, both borate minerals. About two thirds of the specimen is comprised pale green microcrystalline boracite with some small (1mm) crystals at one end. Richly covering the top of the specimen is a reddish brown coating of crystalline hilgardite. Under the magnifying lens, the hilgardite crystals are wonderful, although better crystals of boracite are to be had." 1380 Hardness Streak Specific Gravity Crystal Form(s)

Pipestone	Formula	/Images/picture.jpg	Pipestone National Monument, MN	acquired 2004	Matrix	Secondary Mineral(s)	From the collection of Kevin Ponzio (Earth Prospect & Mining Co.). I had included this specimen in a tray of items I was selecting from Kevin's wares and discussed my own specimen (#0382); Kevin told me he had acquired it in trade from a Native American for some carving stone. We also discussed his interest in acquiring a specimen of Grand Rapids selenite like the ones Jack Cramer (and myself) had on display in the club exhibit. When it came time to total my selections he set this specimen aside and told me it was a gift. One of my (foster) daughters is married to a Native American; in gratitude for his honor I stopped back later and gave Kevin #1292.	1293	Hardness	Streak	Specific Gravity	Crystal Form(s)

Antimony	Sb	1297b 1297a 1297c 1297d	Port Quinn Mine, Port Quinn, Cornwall, UK.	acquired 2004	Quartz	Galena and Chalcopyrite and several unidentified minerals	From the collection of Wild About Rocks, #110296. They described this specimen as "Native Elements: Antimony, Sb, occurs in hydrothermal veins with various sulfide ores. It is rare, and most Antimony is found as its sulfide, Stibnite. Small amounts of Antimony are alloyed with Lead or other soft metals to strengthen them for use, for example as battery plates and cable coverings. This specimen consists of a quartz matrix in which Antimony is dispersed as small shiny crystalline masses. There�are also two other sulfides, Galena, which is cubic as opposed to rhombohedral, and Chalcopyrite, which occurs as brassy crusts. The interest of the specimen comes from its rarity as a British specimen. From Port Quinn Mine, Port Quinn, Cornwall, UK.". I would add that Port Quinn is near Tintagel, where King Arthur's legendary castle was, and Dozmary Pool, the last resting place of Merlin's magical sword Excalibur.	1297	Hardness	Streak	Specific Gravity	Crystal Form(s)

Hilgardite	Ca_{2B₅O₉Cl � (H₂O)}	/Images/picture.jpg	Boulby Potash Mine,�Loftus, Cleveland, England	Acquired 2004	Boracite	Secondary Mineral(s)	From the collection of Wild About Rocks, #110248. Their description read, in part, "Borates are a complex group of approximately 50 minerals, containing Boron and Oxygen in combination with metals. The fundamental building clock of borates is a Boron ion surrounded by three Oxygen ions in the same plane, (BO₃) 3-. This Borate triangle, like the Silica tetrahedron can form an almost infinite variety of chains, rings and sheets, making the Borates similar to the many structural variations found in the Silicate Class of minerals. Hilgardite is a rare Borate mineral. It is usually found with�Halite (Common Salt) in salt domes or in Potash deposits. It displays either� fibrous or granular masses. Crystals are very uncommon. The specimen is�a matrix free specimen of Hilgardite and Boarcate, both borate minerals. About two thirds of the specimen is comprised pale green microcrystalline boracite with some small (1mm) crystals at one end. Richly covering the top of the specimen is a reddish brown coating of crystalline hilgardite. Under the magnifying lens, the hilgardite crystals are wonderful, although better crystals of boracite are to be had."	1380	Hardness	Streak	Specific Gravity	Crystal Form(s)

His label suggests this may be a Type Locality specimen; "molten rock from the base of a giant landslide, only 2 occurrances worldwide!!" per the label. BTW, a Google search found 19 hits for "frictionite landslide" with several more locations, but it is still pretty rare.	1470	Hardness	Streak	Specific Gravity	Crystal Form(s)
