UK Shows We will be exhibiting at our usual selection of shows in 2012, which are the regular Oxford Mineral Shows, the Bakewell Rock Exchange in October and the Haywards Heath Show in November. Our first show of the year will be the Oxford Show on Sunday 4 March where we will be offering a wide range of specimens including a lovely range of minerals that we recently acquired from Peru. If there are any specimens on our website that you would like to see in person at one of these shows, let us know and we can bring them along for you to have a look at. Our Guarantee... We want you to be delighted with your purchases and we make every effort to represent specimens as accurately as possible. However, if a specimen does not live up to your expectations, we will provide a full refund subject to our Returns Policy. Viewing Specimens The photographs of mineral specimens for sale are completely genuine and have not been enhanced in any way. For photographs the specimens are illuminated using daylight halogen bulbs to ensure that colours are as close as possible to how they appear in daylight.
