I just found out that numbers 66, 69 and 76 are dyed stones, AKA skypeople-made. I will have to dispose of them.

I am repeating myself, but I have to say that's awesome.

Well - I have a large rock collection, like 80# or so, but only part of it are minerals, most are interesting rocks. I never made photos of them all though. They're from all over the world, from abandoned and active mines, rock quarries, lava tunnels. I have Rocks that are over 2 billion years old and speak of the very dawn of oxygen atmosphere as well as very recently destroyed corals. Would you like me to get a digital camera and make some pictures?
I admit, they're not as beautiful as the images here though. Oh btw - are you studying something like Earth Sciences or just interested in minerals as a hobby?
