Locality: Ural Mts., Russia
No.: 5847
Size: 4.8 x 2.2 x 1.8 cm
Formula: Be3Al2(Si6O18)
Description: This is a distinctive, green, doubly terminated emerald crystal from Urals, Russia. The crystal has good color saturation. Emerald, the green variety of Beryl, is the most famous and valuable green gemstone. Its beautiful green color, combined with durability and rarity, make it one of the most expensive gemstones. Deep green is the most desired color in Emeralds. In general the paler the color of an Emerald, the lesser its value. Emerald is a gemstone and a variety of the mineral Beryl colored green by trace amounts of chromium and sometimes vanadium.

Size: 1 x 1 x 1 cm
Formula: Pb5(VO4)3Cl
Description: This model represents a floater specimen with stacked blocky Vanadinite crystals (short-prismatic hexagonal crystals). The cluster is nearly equant (1 cm across), doubly-terminated, adamantine luster, and reddish to deep-orange in color. The prismatic faces are incredibly lustrous while the basal faces are a little less so.
Vanadinite is an important ore of vanadium (V) and a minor source of the lead (Pb). Vanadinite usually forms where lead minerals are oxidized (as secondary mineral), often in areas with an arid climate. It is commonly associated with the oxidation of galena.

Serial No.: 9727
Size: 14 x 10 x 7 cm
Description: This is a Fedorov 5-axis Universal Stage for polarizing microscope made in Soviet Union. All the accessories including the lenses, holders, and glass hemispheres are omitted in the 3D reconstruction.
E.S. Fedorov developed a 4-axis universal stage in 1892 in response to a need to characterize feldspar-group minerals.
The optical behavior in crystals (except those in isometric system) varies with the direction of light travel within the crystal, and measurement of optical properties has to be carried out in specific orientations. The universal stage is certainly the most important of such devices, and for more than half a century it was considered essential for petrographic work. Fedorov Universal Stages have been developed with 2, 3, 4 or 5 axes.

Description: Hematite is an iron mineral crystallizing in the rhombohedral system; the most important ore of iron, it is dimorphous (i.e., describing two minerals that have the same chemical formula but are different in crystal structure) with Maghemite, occurs in black metallic-looking crystals, in reniform masses or fibrous aggregates, or in reddish earthy forms. Hematite is also known as bloodstone; red hematite; red iron ore; red ocher; or rhombohedral iron ore. Black crystals of Hematite may be confused with Ilmenite.

Size: 5.3 x 4.3 x 2.2 cm
Formula: Fe2O3
Description: In modern usage ‘Turgite’ is often referred to as an iridescent ‘variety’ of either Hematite or Goethite (both are iron oxides). Usually, a thin film comprised of aluminum and phosphate was found to coat such Hematite. The thin films that range from tens to hundreds of nanometers thick are believed to cause the color.

Formula: Cu5(PO4)2(OH)4
Description: Pseudomalachite is an emerald green to dark green and blackish-green, monoclinic mineral consisting of a hydrated basic copper phosphate. It is also known as tagilite. Pseudomalachite is found in oxidized zones of copper deposits. This sample comes with radial fibrous and concentric inner structure, and reniform/botryoidal surface.
The name Pseudomalachite comes from the Greek for “false” and “malachite”, because of its similarity in appearance to the carbonate mineral malachite.

Download Diamond with round brilliant cut (flatter crown) in various files formats such as Wavefront Object format, Autodesk FBX, DirectX 9.0, Stereo Lithography and HTML5 JSON format.
Locality: -
No.: -
Size: -
Formula: C
Description: The name Diamond refers to its hardness (Greek - adamas, invincible) and has rank 10 on the Mohs scale. There is nothing comparable to it in hardness. Its cutting resistance is 4 times greater than that of Ruby and Sapphire, the gemstone next in hardness after Diamond. This allows one to cut diamonds with diamond and/or with diamond powder. Because of the perfect cleavage, care must be taken not to accidentally bang against an edge of a diamond, and also when setting it. His very strong luster sometimes enables the experienced eye to differentiate between a diamond and its imitations.
Diamond is generally insensitive to chemical reactions. High temperatures, on the other hand, can induce etchings on the facets.

Description: Aragonite is a carbonate mineral, orthorhombic mineral species of calcium carbonate but with a crystal structure different from those of Vaterite and Calcite, the other two polymorphs of the same composition. Also known as Aragon spar. Aragonite commonly develop twinning on {110}. This results in a cyclical twin which gives a pseudo-hexagonal appearance (form).

Description: Bloodstone, also known as Heliotrope, is typically a combination of two minerals: Chalcedony and Jasper. It inherits its green base color from Chalcedony, while the bright red splatters come from iron oxide inclusions (likely Hematite) within the specimen. As a member of the Chalcedony family, Bloodstone is a type of cryptocrystalline Quartz. It exhibits a conchoidal fracture and has a hardness of approximately 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale.
