  • My Mineral Collection Rocks! 🪨 Small Cabinet Size edition is a video of all the pieces in my personal collection that are over 2 inches but under 5 inches according to the small cabinet size range of the Tucson Arizona TGMS show standards. most of these would still be considered miniatures on the east coast. Enjoy!
    (I mispoke in the video these are not large cabinet pieces for the purpose of this video 😅)

    very sweet specimens ❤ i also collect smaller pieces. dont do any shows, just acquire them because umm... theyre pretty :-)
    have prob 70 specimens myself now. Many of them were gifts from a collector that has been traveling the world since the 70s and collecting things by hand. He even wrote a chapter in an older book called "American Mineral treasures". He was all over the thomas mountain range. Really sweet guy, got incredibly lucky to meet him and become friends. Have a few incredible pieces of topaz from him.
    Thanks for showing everything off. I loved hearing about what youve got. Honestly, there arent many videos of rough specimen collectors on youtube (that arent dedicated to rockhounding itself). Fun to see!

      Also, I have a similar stilbite and apophyllite sculpture to your stilbite. It is a beautiful tower with similar bowties and cubes. Sweet! I could watch this all day.

    Wow milpillas is my favorite mine for azurite (or tied with tsumeb since they look similar) but what I really love about yours is obviously the gemminess but also sitting on that Snow White matrix, I haven’t seen too many like that. It reminds me a lot of neptunites on I think natrolite. Awesome piece, you should be proud of that one. I have a milpillas but it’s maybe 1/10th the size with a small amount of white matrix, I wasn’t sure what the matrix was so maybe I learned from your video that it could be dickite.

    • @ImaginationHobbies
      @ImaginationHobbies  Před 11 měsíci

      Yeah! Thanks! Very lucky I got one! Good comparison on the neptunite on natrolite! Yours most likely is on dickite if it's from Milpillas

    • @ImaginationHobbies

      I actually have dug at that natrolite/benitoite mine once. Smelled horrible. Found some examples but nothing good. One small gemmy-ish benitoite

      I do believe Specularite is a variety of Hematite, no? Sort of like all vipers are snakes but not all snakes are vipers? But yes I would also be inclined to call those blades roses Specularite even though Hematite wouldn't be improper

    • @canadiangemstones7636
      @canadiangemstones7636 Před 5 měsíci +1

      Specularite is a varietal name for hematite. Varietal names are silly, and to be avoided.
