San José Mine, Oruro, Bo­liviaDo you know El Tio, the ruler of the underworld? In January 2012 Stefan Schorn, administrator of mineralienatlas.de, had the chance to visit the Bolivian San José Mine.

The Mu­nich Show 2024The mineral fair ended successfully and the author of this article received only positive feedback. Many dealers were extremely satisfied. According to the organizer, 18,000 guests visited the halls on Saturday alone. Both days were a hive of activity and the numerous children's attractions were well received. Parents were everywhere with their children to complete the geo-rally.

For mineral collectors, the usual dealers were on site, although some tables remained empty. There were no highlights from the scene or overflowing tables with identical material from new finds. However, one stand with an impressive selection of Germanite chunks was a welcome novelty.

The special exhibition “The Impossible Crystal” was a success. Even if not all the exhibits could be described as “impossible crystal”, all the pieces were of the best quality and well worth seeing. In the B halls, the author visited the “Young Designers”, including a student who presented cast silver jewelry in an organic design that showed off the embedded stones to their best advantage - an impressive piece of work...

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)

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)

Baufeld Staats­bruch... durch Mineraliensammler und sonstige Informationsquellen ist immer wieder von einem Verbundbergwerk Marienschacht/Johannesschacht die Rede, Mineralstufen werden entsprechend so angeboten oder sind auch so beschriftet, aber einen Verbund hat es zwischen der Grube Marienschacht und der Grube Johannesschacht nicht gegeben, denn von einem Verbund wird nur dann gesprochen, wenn zwei noch tätige Bergwerke miteinander verbunden werden und das war hier nicht der Fall, weil die Grube Johannesschacht bereits stillgelegt war und die Tagesanlagen abgerissen wurden.

Min­er­al Por­trait Flu­o­riteThe mineral portrait fluorit is based on the book "SEROKA, P.; 2001: FLUORIT - Daten - Fakten - Weltweite Vorkommen"; a detailed and exhaustive information on the mineral's characteristics, the crystal forms, crystal growth and the different aggregates and pseudomorphoses.

Special chapters deal with the fluorite deposits and global settings, the mining of fluorspar and ore processing; One chapter shows the development of fluorite collecting in the past and now.

The most comprehensive part of the book is dedicated to the mineral's worldwide deposits, describing the best known old, classic and modern occurrences in 96 countries . A great number of mineral and mining photographs accompany each chapter, showing the characteristics of most fluorites from a specific deposit.
