While acquiring a gorgeous mineral specimen is great, nothing beats those favorite self-collected ones!!! So here's to sharing one of my self-collected favorites: andradite double-sided slickenside with calcite and willemite (under SW UV) from a 2021 Mill Site Pile Dig. While it may not be the Belle of the Ball, it definitely has an interesting personality!!
We'd love to see what your favorite self-collected pieces from Franklin & Sterling Hill area!!!!

This Saturday is our next Night Dig on the Buckwheat Dump. As of right now, there's a chance of thunderstorms so 🤞that it decreases as the week goes on!

Looking for some end of summer reading? May we suggest the Color Book- formally known as The Mineralogy of Franklin and Ogdensburg NJ. It might not be book club approved but it's definitely got the rockhound seal of approval and should be a staple for anyone who collects Franklin & Sterling Hill minerals!
We have this available for purchase at the museum for $185+ tax and also are able to ship (shipping charges extra). Please contact the museum +1 973-827-3481 or info@franklinmineralmuseum.com for more info!
