I finished taking rock photos, hooray! (..it's over with!)

I ended up saving 195 photos. I want to take some good pictures of my fluorescent rocks at some point, but I need to figure out how first. I'm glad now I took the pictures on a huge sheet of paper, because some of my rocks left a lot of dirt or shed a lot of fine crystals (looking at you stibnite)

..Not sure when I'll edit them, or how long it'll take, though. Here's a few of the unedited ones.

Cerussite gemstone, 896 carats from Tsumeb, Namibia.

Cerussite is a lead carbonate mineral with chemical formula PbCO3 classified and named in 1845 from the Latin 'Cerussa' meaning "white lead" and is an important lead ore. Transparent, colourless single-crystal gemstones like this one are rare, their lead content imbuing the stones with a high dispersion (fire). Their adamantine lustre adds to the beauty of these spectacular gems.
