Hi,

New trip report from Morocco is now posted on our website, you can read there about new superb apatites, datolites described from Morocco for the first time as good crystals, see unique photos of the pockets with wulfenite crystals in situ and much more!

Good show.

Whenever I read these Morocco reports I wonder how many tons of rock these guys must have moved - more or less manually - during the last few decades.

As usual... awesome story. I love how you have access to so many sites. It is great to see the local miners and see what they have to deal with to extract the specimens. We tend to take that part for granted, assuming it is just a bunch of people living semi well and that the specimens come out in a relatively easy manner. I know better, but that seems to dominate the average collector's mind. I wish the miners got more of a cut so they weren't so bad off.

Thank you yet again Tomek!

That brought back some very happy memories - and showed me places we didn't get to see too.

Great work!

Best wishes
