2007 Show report

News

This edition has a good selection of Italian and international exhibitors, that  also introduced some novelties or however valid and classical mineral samples

 
Starting from the Liguria we signal a notable find of mineral in alpine paragenesi from the Val Varenna: bissolite in long fibers in association to albite, that resemble the classical from  M. Bianco and iron roses on albite in very aesthetical and really exceptional samples for the Liguria.

 Also from Liguria there were some old samples collected in the '70 of rhodonite , tinzenite copper  and interesting manganoandolomite that now is impossible to find.

From Italy were also present some interesting alpine piece of smoky quartz and garnets   coming ou from recent colletion acquisition.

At international level, from the most classical countries of Pakistan and Afghanistan a good selection of  gem minerals and especially some new recoveries of mineral of alpine crack among which some Bastnaesite of notable quality, green titanites on adularia with chlorite, and classical brookities and above all anatases for every budget  

From Colombia an interesting selection of Emeralds and some notable champions of blue euclase on calcite.

From Egypt an interesting new recovery of Trona in crystals till 10 cm in association to reddish or blackish thenardite

In general the level of the mineral samples was altogether very good with an ample possibility of choice for the visitors and collectors that  spaced from the systematic to  aesthetic

Interesting also the table of R. Pagano, with an ample and interesting selection of classical mineralogical publications, mineralogical record and, as novelty, an interesting recent publication on Namibia. The stand of the Rivista Min Italiana  and other  publications and books of mineralogical character complete the scela.
Obviously we apologize  with all the exhibitors that we have not mentined,… surely many other were the samples  and the tables  to underline.
