Nova Scotia Update – November 2016
Posted by: Raymond McDougall on 11.23.2016 | Filed under: Latest, Recent Mineral Updates

I’ve added some excellent gmelinite specimens from Two Islands and Five Islands, Nova Scotia, in the new Nova Scotia Update (click here). This update includes nice analcime and stilbite specimens as well.
I’ve also posted a new article on the blog, to give a better idea about these two Islands localities: Mineral Collecting on the Islands – Bay of Fundy (click here).
Here are a few of the specimens from the update:
