Here is a recently finished Benitoite specimen that also has Neptunite and one Joaquinite.  But it is the Benitoite that makes this specimen.  There is one sharp crystal standing alone and a very sharp cluster of three crystals.  The specimen measures 3.8 X 3.2 X 2.5cm.  Good Luck!  Shows are almost here!!  On August 4-5 is the San Francisco Gem and Mineral Society's show, held for the first time ever on Treasure Island!!!  The address is 1 Avenue of the Palms, San Francisco, CA.  For more information: sfgemshow dot org.  The next weekend, August 11 - 12 is the Treasure Trove of Gems Show in Orangevale, just outside of Sacramento, at the Orangevale Community Center, 6826 Hazel Avenue, Orangevale, CA 95662.  For more information, treasuretroveofgems  dot  com!  I am currently going through three collections and a host of other new material.  Hopefully that means that although you can always find Benitoite here, there will be a better selection of minerals than I have ever offered!!  Check out my FaceBook page or website for more information.  And don't forget to look for all pertinent Benitoite news on my "Benitoite" Facebook page.
