Welcome to my site! UCMINERALS.COM offers mineral specimens for all ranges of collecting interests. We carry hundreds of quality mineral specimens for any range of mineral collecting interests, from the beginning mineral collector to the advanced mineral collector.UC Minerals is really a company called Uniquely Crystalline, I just liked the name UC Minerals better than my current name because it better describes what my web page is all about...You see minerals. I have been an avid collector for about fifteen years now, and have had this company for the last 11 years. Over the years, I have built up quite an inventory of specimens from around the world. I have specimens ranging from exceptional, one-of-a-kind, specimens for the collector, to reference pieces for the beginning collector. If you have any particular interests, just drop me a line and let me know. If I do not have an item in stock, it is very likely that I can find it for you.

I just finished updating my site with 45 new specimens. The new material includes four wulfenites (all from different localities), several rhodochrosites, calcites, fluorites, and a very nice sphalerite to name a few. As usual, I dropped the price on all of the "new" material left over from last month.I also just purchased a very nice collection and will be working on it in the coming weeks, so keep checking back.
