Check out my latest pictures from my massive Septarian Crystal Collection.  I currently have over 100 nodules in a variety of interesting self standing Septarian stunners naturally shaped from the enormous concretions breaking over time.

My collection was hand picked from Manifest Ranch Colorado and features vivid multi color LW UV fluorescence and an usually diverse mineralogy unlike any other Septarians in the world! 

Gem grade crystals are clustered on a metallic ore matrix rich in Sulfides,Sulfates, Zinc, Lead and Iron minerals with Silicates such as Chalcedony and rainbow Quartz and a mixture of Zeolites. Some or all minerals can be present. About 25% contain precious metals as well! 

The specimens in this installment of Septarian Saturday have the following complex crystal clusters: Selenite, Barite / Baryte, Ankerite and Dolomite, Quartz, Calcite, Fluorite, Adaluria Albite, an array of Zeolites (Analcime, Chabazite, Pollucite & more) with Sphalerite, Pyrite, Siderite and Galena matrix minerals often with a Smithsonite druze. A truly unique bouquet of crystals. 

Note that many Septarian Nodule Display pieces are fossils as well!

More pictures are available on my Facebook & Instagram pages at Manifest Minerals and pictures of the property where my minerals are collected on Facebook at Manifest Ranch Colorado.
