Bes­tim­mungs­merk­male der Rhom­ben­por­phyre (RP) als Geschie­be­fundeAls Bestimmungsmerkmal fallen zweifarbige Einsprenglinge (blaugrau und rosarot) auf, die allerdings auch in der Variante RP26 vorkommen. Das wichtigste Kriterium, um diese beiden Varianten auseinander halten zu können, sind die in der intrusiven Variante vorhandenen, schmalen Zonierungen, welche die blaugrauen Kristalle dünn umschließen. Generell finden sich 2 Arten von Einsprenglingen in der intrusiven Variante: 1. kleine, zerbrochen wirkende rosarote und 2. größere, blaugraue mit schmaler Zonierung, welche die gleiche Farbe aufweist, wie die der Kleineren Einsprenglinge. ...

Min­er­al por­trait olivine (ger­man)Olivine is not a separate mineral, but a member belonging to the forsterite-fayalite mixing series. Olivine belongs to the olivin-groupe whose end-members are calcio-olivine and tephroite. Forsterite is a magnesium silicate; fayalite an iron silicate. If commonly is spoken of olivine, it is usually a more or less iron-rich forsterite. The color of olivine is generally yellowish green, olive green to black. You will find much more interesting details in our portrait about this common mineral series.

Written and investigated by Peter Seroka. (Article in german)

Chang­sha 2013 Min­er­al & Gem Show Messe­berichtDie schon lange angekündigte Show war für mich fast ein Muss, nachdem ich mich nun schon 7 Jahre in China aufhalte und die chinesische Einstellung, sich zu präsentieren, einigermaßen kenne. Alleine die Ankündigung, den anderen Shows in Tucson, München oder St. Marie irgendwann den Rang abzulaufen, ließ einiges erwarten. Immerhin war die Rede von 1000 bis 1200 Ausstellern und erwarteten 200.000 Besuchern. Nun ja, Zahlen sind in China immer mit Vorsicht zu betrachten, wie sich weiter unten noch zeigen wird.
Jedenfalls war das Medieninteresse sehr groß (es handelte sich ja schließlich um eine nationale Angelegenheit) und auch die öffentliche Werbung war bestens organisiert. Schon bei meiner Ankunft am neuen Südbahnhof von Changsha konnte man Videos zur Show betrachten, auf der Fahrt in die Stadt und dann speziell zur Show war praktisch jeder Laternenmast mit Werbebannern behängt. Schließlich wurde die Show ja als eines der ganz großen Events der letzten Jahre hingestellt (nach Olympiade und Expo).

Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines 2015 - Fair vis­itWho knows Tucson with its many satellite events, has already a good taste of the Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines show. Unlike in Munich where you find the stands clear and concentrated in halls, the organizers use single fenced-off parts of the city to place the stands on the streets. Public buildings such as swimming pool, school and theater are transformed into smaller exhibition halls... A small showreport by Stefan Schorn (in german)

Min­er­al Por­trait PyriteThe term used in the plural "pyrites" has often been misused in the past or in common for marcasite, chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite and other yellow to brass-colored minerals. The word pyrite is derived from the Greek "pyrites lithos" (derived pyr = fire and lithos = stone) and describes a characteristic of the mineral, when rubbing against steel or flint (flint) to generate sparks. In prehistoric tombs pyrite concretions and unrolled pyrite where found, which supposed to be used for lighting a fire. (Article in German)

Cop­per - one of the old­est me­t­als of mankindCopper was one of the first metals ever extracted and used by humans, and it has made vital contributions to sustaining and improving society since the dawn of civilization.
The metal and its alloys have been used for thousands of years. Copper was first used in coins and ornaments starting about 8000 B.C., and at about 5500 B.C., copper tools helped civilization emerge from the Stone Age. In the Roman era, copper was principally mined on Cyprus, hence the origin of the name of the metal as сyprium (metal of Cyprus), later shortened to сuprum.

The discovery that copper alloyed with tin produces bronze marked the beginning of the Bronze Age at about 3000 B.C.
Copper is easily stretched, molded, and shaped; is resistant to corrosion; and conducts heat and electricity efficiently. As a result, copper was important to early humans and continues to be a material of choice for a variety of domestic, industrial, and high-technology applications today.

Its compounds are commonly encountered as copper(II) salts, which often impart blue or green colors to minerals such as azurite and malachite and have been widely used historically as pigments. ... a contribution by Peter Seroka
