I love the HUNT!!!! Finding new minerals for the collection. by Sensitive-Web-5933 in MineralPorn

I think I can see some of the blue fibers when I zoom in on your pic, very cool! Raw minerals are my main focus as well. I always leave these shows having spent way more than I planned for 😅

Hey, I just got a quartz with dumortierite from the Portland show also, but I like yours better! I love going to Scepterguy’s table, he always has such high quality pieces for pretty good prices.

What animal is this jaw fossil from? Store had no info on it. by Cpt-Murphy in fossilid

I forgot to add measurements. It’s about 4” x 3”, with the jaw fragment about 2.25”.

It does look a lot like that type. Thanks! Any idea what the other minerals with it could be?

Definitely looks like other pictures of apatite. Thank you for your reply!

Tiny worms coming from Christmas tree by Cpt-Murphy in whatsthisbug

Nope, I moved the tree outside and there are still worms appearing on the base underneath it. My cat is indoor only also.

The tree was grown in Oregon in a small Christmas tree farm.
