Chalcophyllite from Majuba Hill, Pershing Co. Nevada

This is a specimen from a large micromount collection I bought off of eBay several years ago.  I am still in the process of taking photos of each specimen. 

This particular specimen is labeled Pharmacosiderite.  The photos below are at 40x taken with a digital camera simply held up to the eye piece.

• Pharmacosiderite is brown cubic crystals
• Mixite – Pale blue green acicular crystal sprays
• Chalcophyllite- Thin green hexagonal platy crystal in the center.

Cave of the Mounds, Blue Mounds, Wisconsin USA

Cave of the Mounds is located in southern Wisconsin just west of Madison  WI.  I originally visited the cave in September 2010.

from Wikipedia:

Cave of the Mounds, a natural limestone cave located near Blue Mounds, Wisconsin, USA, is named for two nearby hills called the Blue Mounds. It is located in the southern slope of the east hill. The cave's beauty comes from its many varieties of mineral formations called speleothems. The Chicago Academy of Sciences considers the Cave of the Mounds to be "the significant cave of the upper Midwest" because of its beauty,[1] and it is promoted as the "jewel box" of major American caves. In 1988, the United States Department of the Interior and the National Park Service designated the cave as a National Natural Landmark.

Map Search is broken

Just noticed my image map search by States is not working correctly at all. Worked great back in 2009-2010. I removed it for now, once its fixed I'll add it back to my blog.
