Location: Merelini Hills, Tanzania
Size: 11.8 x 7.3 x 5.6 cm
Item #: BU27200275
Comments: Tanzanite, the highly coveted gemmy blue variety of Zoisite, is very rarely available as a matrix specimen. Therefore, this piece requires some explanation. The featured 2 cm crystal is perfect, a highly lustrous, sharply terminated, single crystal of the best violet-blue color. There are numerous internal veils and tiny fractures which rescued it from the gem market. The specimen is clumsily repaired with Graphite grains unnaturally mostly covering the glue. It may have been just assembled, but more likely, the crystal was removed from the matrix, heated to bring out the color, then replaced and concealed with Graphite, a species which naturally occurs in association. The matrix is certainly from the area as it contains some fractured Zoisite crystals, as shown. It is a unique piece which suffers from the repair, but offers an otherwise unavailable cabinet-sized matrix specimen.

Minerals and geology form the bedrock of our lives. For many years we have sifted through Poland, Europe and, indeed, the whole world, in search of interesting geological phenomena, such as volcanoes and glaciers. The discovery of minerals is of prime importance to us.Last year was particularly active, with voyages to the Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Morocco, India, Russia, Turkey, Mongolia, China, Tajikistan and Madagascar. The resulting science articles, exhibitions and specimens are the provenance of our Geological Society, known as “Spirifer”. Between voyages for Spirifer, we are students passionate about our work. Spirifer is a non-profit organization based solely on volunteerism. Its main purpose is Earth science education. We compose and publish the only periodical in Poland for minerals collectors; it is called “Otoczak” (www.spirifer.most.org.pl/otoczak/). We also organize minerals exchanges, exhibitions, shows (www.mineraly.waw.pl), as well as provide organized weekly educational lessons to children (www.pracownia.spirifer.org).
Our organization receives no government funding and is completely self-supporting. An important source of that support is the selling of specimens from our voyages.

I started this all about 15 years ago. A couple buddies were rockers and I was just fascinated by what they were finding. amethyst, tourmaline, topaz, aquamarine, quartz crystal and .... So I started bugging them to let me collect. One day one could not go so I was invited along. I am not sure if it was a test but we hiked up 2 mountains and covered 8 plus miles.( thought I was gonna die!). But we went to an old Amethyst mine and I found some ~!!!!!!!! Needless to say I was hooked.

Welcome to the web site of Earlene and John Schooler! Even though we are primarily a mineral dealer, we are a fossil dealer and a meteorite dealer as well. We have been providing collectors, museums, schools, and universities (both within and outside the USA) with above average quality specimens of minerals, fossils, and meteorites at reasonable prices, for more years than seems possible. While many people think of rocks and minerals as being the same thing, they are not. Minerals have a solid crystalline structure with a specific chemical composition, whereas rocks are a mass of broken particles of minerals. We have mineral specimens for sale! Most everyone is familiar with calcite, tourmaline, and gold specimens. We carry those along with a wide variety of other minerals for sale. Over the years, tektites, fulgurites, and carvings have been added to our basic "mineral store."

In 1979 one of us, Rod Lee at that time a professor of Economics - started to sell micromounts via mail order. to raise sufficient money to buy a stereo zoom scope. We succeeded. The business grew, and we still use that old scope. We really fell in love with microminerals. Such beauty in such a small package. Still, as micromounters, you know the feeling. Our logo “pulchritudo in parvitas”- beauty in smallness - sums up what micromounting is to us.

Our reputation is based on constantly providing top quality material at reasonable prices — as we have said in our letterhead and advertising over the years — “fine microminerals for the discriminating collector”.

I am a retired Mining Engineer and Geologist and have been collecting minerals for over 55 years. I began as a mineral dealer in 1994. As with my own collection, my major concern for specimens offered on this site is quality and cost. It has been my goal to keep prices as low as possible. With careful research, I can find superior specimens at below market prices. I do not inflate prices for internet buyers and you pay the same here as you would at any of the shows I attend.

The notion of mounted minerals began in the fall of 1984 when Bill and Elsie Stone, owners of the Sunnywood Collection wanted to display several large specimens from their mineral collection in the living room. The specimens were large enough that they might damage the furniture. They decided to construct a custom base out of hardwood to hold the specimens in a stable but artistic position. From the first mounted specimens came The Sunnywood Collection, providing museum quality mineral and fossil specimens from world-wide localities and carvings from Brazil. All specimens from The Sunnywood Collection are mounted on either exotic or domestic hardwoods or acrylic bases.

We have a special relationship with several notable mineral sites, including Treasure Mountain Diamond Mine, located in Little Falls, NY -- a locality famous for its incomparable sceptered diamonds. In 2000, we were lucky enough to help mine co-owner Bob Borofsky operate his half of the William Wise Mine in Westmoreland, NH, renowned for world-class octahedral green fluorite. And, we're the first-hand source for specimens from the incredible find of pyromorphite from Loudville, MA featured in the cover story in the March-April 2001 issue of Rocks and Minerals magazine.
Check out our eBay auctions! We have recently stocked the shelves of our eBay store with nearly 150 mineral and fossil specimens. These are not the same specimens you will find here on our web site - they are from our uncatalogued inventory.

In the past several years I have seen too many new dealers enter the market who know little to nothing about crystallography, petrology, chemistry or any of the basic fundamentals of mineralogy. At shows more than half the dealers simply put rocks out on a table or shelf with no pricing, no identification, or locality information. I have seen other dealers continue to push specimens to seemingly arbitrary pricing levels with the belief that there is always someone out there who will think that a high price is equal to high quality. This is an unhealthy trend in this hobby and one that needs to be addressed in some way by the mineral collecting community.
I have been a mineral collector since the mid 1970s and have seen the pricing for minerals expand at a rate that is unsupportable over the long term. My basic philosophy for pricing specimens is to ensure that when you open the box you feel as though you have received value for your purchase.

Chris Tucker Minerals
Chris Tucker Minerals specializes in minerals from Montana. My primary interest is in discovering new localities as well as bring old localities back to life. On the website you will find a selection of fine minerals as well as mining antiques. You will notice that the minerals I have offered for sale are not the same old common pieces from India, China, and Mexico, I am the source for the vast majority of the specimens on this site. If you see another dealer with the same material, chances are good that they bought it from me. I work hard to bring only the finest specimens out of long forgotten mines and into your collection.
