Hi! My name is Sean Jungo and I am the owner of Connecting Trails Minerals. I have been collecting minerals for over 35 years (There are photos of 5 year old me digging in the Utah sand!) and am passionate about the hobby. The mineral collecting community has some of the most fascinating people I have met--you are scientists, teachers, miners, authors, photographers, psychics, engineers, musicians, entrepreneurs and most importantly friends. Mineral collecting is so much more than the acquisition of specimens. It is, in the words of a 90 year old vendor at the Franklin Mineral Show; "one of the great joys of my life." It is the story of collecting trips, early morning sunrises, discovery, friends and fellowship and awe at the beauty of nature's gifts. I specialize in minerals with a story--historical collections, rare and unique localities, aesthetically unique specimens as well as a wide assortment of affordable minerals for those building their collections. I buy collections!

The second of my combined shipping purchase. I expected to find some fluorescent yellow but was surprised to find hundreds of reflective micro lime green dots in long wave. The acicular fibrous spoke crystal pattern is very attractive. Several conversations with seller who turns out to be a great communicator. I will buy from this shop again.

Exceptional unusual specimen. Seller always does a great job in packing and quick shipping. Used combined shipping to arrive at an outstanding value for two items. Did a little trimming of the soft granular cookite for display purposes. This is my third pink tourmaline specimen that is fluorescent purple in short wave. Very pleased with all of this seller's minerals that I have purchased.
