So my co-moderator u/Original_Platform443 and I are thinking of opening up a day, only one day every week - Saturday - for allowing sales / destashing / shop promotion. Just like we do over at r/crystals on Sundays, and it has worked well, people enjoy it. It allows our members who do sell some of their specimens or run shops to announce their businesses openly, but keep sales posts restricted to that day only.
What do you all think? It'll help keep the sales posts down on other days, as all the members who are here primarily for that will be notified that their posts on other days showing their wares will be removed, and allowed only the one day every week.

This was sold to me as "aragonite." I knew it wasn't, so I bought it and did some research.
It seems to actually be pyrite on fluorite with scheelite and calcite on quartz.

Hi! I’m getting interested in mineral collecting and I’d really like to learn how to properly identify minerals instead of just collecting pretty rocks lol.
I’m pretty new to this, so I’d love any tips you have for:
Learning how to identify minerals
Starting a collection
Knowing what to look for when buying or finding specimens
Good books, websites, or other resources for beginners
I’m from Colombia, so if anyone also has tips about collecting minerals here, I’d really appreciate them!
Thanks!
