Pinnacle 5 Minerals | Amazonite and Smoky Quartz

Happy Thanksgiving to all. Thanks for your support. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the shows and sharing this last season’s finds. #pinnacle5minerals #skyhawkclaim #amazonite

Just a reminder. This crystallized copper specimen was stolen from us in February 2023 while we exhibited at Tucson. If you see it or know anything about it, please PM me. I was reminded after seeing the new MR on Michigan copper. Thanks
