 The Mineral Gallery is a constantly growing collection of mineral descriptions, images, and specimens (see our new specimens last updated 04-Jan-98, and What's New last updated 04-Jan-98), together with several ways of accessing these descriptions. The descriptions include searchable mineralogical data, plus other information of interest to students and rock hounds! The inline GIF images (size about 10k) usually are linked to larger JPEG images (averaging 30k).
To purchase our specimens, select a mineral using any of the above indexes, and then choose the Specimens link just above the description. This will usually display several available specimens, some of which may be marked Sold or Sale Pending, but others will have an Order link which will add that specimen to your currently pending order. You may Cancel or Complete your order then, or after further browsing. Generally, you will return here to review your order (if any), and from there you will Cancel or Complete it. Shipping is normally the next business day (with 3 to 5 days delivery time for most North America destinations). For more information (including our address), see the page How to Buy our Minerals.
