Mineralogical Record Label Archive Inventory ■ ■ Mineralogical Record Label Archive W Inventory X (Last updated July 22, 2007) _____________________________________________________________________________ The Mineralogical Record Label Archive is a collection of original, printed mineral specimen labels representing mineral collections from all countries during the last two centuries. With the possible exception of some of the great museums, it is the largest such collection in the world, with over 15,000 examples, most of which are filed alphabetically in 48 archival philatelic “stock books” or albums as shown in the photo below. The Label Archive section of the MineralogicalRecord.com website contains images of some of these labels, along with biographical or background information on the collector, dealer or institution in each case. That section, however, is a work in progress and may take quite a long time to complete. At present only a small fraction of the labels in the collection have been ■ 1 ■ Axis, Volume 1, number 10 (2005) www.MineralogicalRecord.com ■ ■ researched, scanned and posted. The inventory shown here, however, is a complete list of the collectors (i.e. the private collectors, dealers and institutions) represented in the collection. The list currently consists of 3,066 entries, some of which are cross-references (in cases where a dealership name and also the name of the dealer are present on the label). Each entry may represent a number of different design variations of the label, and in the case of some of the more important early dealers, numerous examples of the same design are included in the collection to preserve information on the kinds of specimens that dealer carried. These, along with some duplicates that are available for trading, total about 15,000 labels. Exchange offers are welcome, and we will be generous in exchanges that can provide us with labels (especially early ones) that are not listed here in our inventory. Please contact Wendell E.

  • The New IMA List of Gem Materials – a Work in Progress – Updated: July 2018
    The New IMA List of Gem Materials – A Work in Progress – Updated: July 2018 In the following pages of this document a comprehensive list of gem materials is presented. The list is distributed (for terms and conditions see below) via the web site of the Commission on Gem Materials of the International Mineralogical Association. The list will be updated on a regular basis. Mineral names and formulae are from the IMA List of Minerals: http://nrmima.nrm.se//IMA_Master_List_%282016-07%29.pdf. Where there is a discrepancy the IMA List of Minerals will take precedence. Explanation of column headings: IMA status: A = approved (it applies to minerals approved after the establishment of the IMA in 1958); G = grandfathered (it applies to minerals discovered before the birth of IMA, and generally considered as valid species); Rd = redefined (it applies to existing minerals which were redefined during the IMA era); Rn = renamed (it applies to existing minerals which were renamed during the IMA era); Q = questionable (it applies to poorly characterized minerals, whose validity could be doubtful). Gem material name: minerals are normal text; non-minerals are bold; rocks are all caps; organics and glasses are italicized. Caveat (IMPORTANT): inevitably there will be mistakes in a list of this type. We will be grateful to all those who will point out errors of any kind, including typos. Please email your corrections to [email protected]. Acknowledgments: The following persons, listed in alphabetic order, gave their contribution to the building and the update of the IMA List of Minerals: Vladimir Bermanec, Emmanuel Fritsch, Lee A.

This is a great image showing the movement directions with arrows.” THE MINERAL ARAGONITE Calcium carbonate forms as both Aragonite and Calcite, and these two minerals only differ in theircrystallization. Cal- cite, the more common mineral, forms in trigonal crystals, whereas Aragonite forms orthorhombic crystals. On occasion, crystals of Aragonite and Calcite are too small to be individually determined, and it is only possible to distinguish these two minerals with optical or x-ray testing. The true identity of microcrystalline forms of Aragonite or Calcite may also not be known without complex testing, and this can also cause a confusion between these species. Most large Aragonite crystals are twinned growths of three individual crystals that form pseudohexagonal trillings.

  • Biathlon Centre Antholz/Anterselva Welcome to South Tyrol!
    50 th EFNS European Forester‘s competition in Nordic Skiing 28.01. - 03.02.2018 Welcome to South Tyrol! Biathlon centre Antholz/Anterselva Südtirol Arena Alto Adige Welcome to Antholz, Welcome to South Tyrol! 1 Dear Sport Friends, on behalf of the South Tyrolian Forestry Association, I would like to welcome you to the “European Forester's Competition in Nordic Skiing” in South Tyrol. This year, the EFNS championship takes place for the 50th time. A very special anniversary – and it is a pleasure to host this event. The location Antholz/Anterselva, where the Biathlon World Cup takes place annually, is famous all over Europe. It is a wonderful sporting area in the middle of forests in between the Lake of Antholz and the stunning mountains of the Rieserferner Group. It’s already the third time that the South Tyrolian Forestry Association hosts the “European Forester's Competition in Nordic Skiing”. The competition has already been held in 1984 in Kastelruth/Castelrotto and 1992 in Toblach/Dobbiaco. 26 years later, it returns for its 50th anniversary. The organising committee led by our motivated chair Heinrich Schwingshackl has been working intensively for over 2 years to organize interesting competitions and an attractive frame programme. A very special highlight is the Jubilee Run “50 Years EFNS”: Every cross-country enthusiast can run the popular Tour de Ski course from Cortina to Toblach/Dobbiaco without timekeeping. EFNS is not only about sports competitions but also about friendship without borders. It is remarkable that so many participants with different jobs in the wood and forestry sector of over 20 European Countries come together.

  • Turquoise in the Burro Mountains, New Mexico
    TURQUOISE IN THE BURRO MOUNTAINS, NEW MEXICO. EDWARD R. ZALINSKI. [The following notes are from data collected during the year •9o5 while the writer was superintendent of the Azure Mining Company's property near Silver City. It was his intention to make a detailed study of the sub- ject, but this professional duties have hitherto prevented and in the following pages are presented the tentative conclusionsof an unfinished investigation.] HISTORY AND LOCALITIES. Turquoiseoriginally came fr4m' Persia by wayof Turkeyand was importedby the Venetians,who called it Turchesa,of which its presentname is the French variation. In America it has long been known to the southwesternIndians and was used by them for ornaments and mosaic work. Professor W. P. Blake, in •858 and '59, called attention to its occurrence at Cerrillos, New Mexico, where it had been mined by the aboriginesand early Spaniards. This locality has producedsome valuable gems, but the mines are not at present worked. Turquoise has been found also at Turquoise Moun- tain, CochiseCounty, and Mineral Park, Mohave County, Ari- zona; near Columbus and near Crescent, in southern Nevada; in Fresno County, California; and in Colorado. In New Mexico, besides Cerrillos mentioned above, it is known at Hachiti; in the Burro Mountains, Grant County; and in the Jarrilla Moun- tains, Otero County. The modern discovery of turquoise in the Burro Mountains dates from •875, but these depositswere known to the Indians and were worked by them. Remains of ancient operationsare still to be seen, while stone hammers, implements and fragments of pottery have been found near the old excavations.

The general usage of the term is to include as pseudomorphs both petrifactions and molds, and also: (1) Any mineral change in which the outlines of the original mineral are preserved, whether this surface be a euhedral crystal form or the irregular bounding surface of an embedded grain or of an aggregate. (2) Any mineral change which has been accomplished without change of volume, as evidenced by the undistorted preservation of an original texture or structure, whether this be the equal volume replacement of a single crystal or of a rock mass on a geologic scale.

Inclusion photography, therefore, can also play an important role in gemology-and, as is evident in this cover photograph, an aesthetically pleasing one as well. Included in quartz, framed by iridescent stress fractures, this euhedral spessarline garnet crystal testifies to the pegmatitic origin of its host. Magnified 60x.Photograph by John I. Koivula.
