Middle Earth Minerals was born of my passion for rocks, so it naturally reflects the minerals that appeal to me.  I love mineral specimens that are out-of-the-ordinary: rare species, unusual crystal habits, pseudomorphs, bizarre twinning, uncommon mineral associations, classic and unusual localities, old and historically significant specimens, radioactives, fluorescents, tenebresecents, phosphorescents, and minerals with inclusions, as well as simply outstanding display specimens.

Every mineral has a story to tell, lending extra depth to the experience of owning it. I think you will find many minerals to enhance your collection when you visit my website.
