Hi Kevin and Bob,I am happy that you guys are getting into this. Wayne State has a marvelous collection of old minerals especially because of A. N. Goddard’s records in his card file. I am just a few days from publishing the article on the collection. Prior to Dave Lowrie becoming curator of the collection I think that many labels were lost. I know that Dave would never lose a label. I did include specimens with missing locations in hopes that someone would be able to help. Perhaps we can use this thread to improve the provenance of the specimens. I will be happy to revise the article as required.

I don't know if any of the Michigan quarries produced anything similar...

Kevin, that water clear, razor sharp, Celestine cluster is one of the best that I have ever seen from the quarries adjacent to the Michigan/Ohio border. I would guess that it is from Maybee, Monroe Co., Michigan, USA. I have a lot of material from Maybee that I have yet to post.

The celestine cluster is likely from
Ottawa Silica Company Quarry (Rockwood Quarry), Rockwood,Wayne Co., Michigan, USA
These clusters were found in the 1970s.Bob

Bob, if you see or talk to Dave please let him know that the article has been published. I think that he would like to see it. The restored, digitized photos are much better than the old 45 year old slides. There are a few specimens that are missing. I could not bring them up to acceptable levels.

Kevin, I read somewhere that Dave set up displays of Wayne State minerals at over 200 Gem and Mineral Shows while he was curator. That would probably include Tucson, Detroit, Cincinnati and Denver among others.

Neat little museum.
I'll have to visit (make an appointment) next time I'm in Detroit visiting family...

Limonite (9.0 x 6.3 x 5.0 cm) Island of Elba, from old Burrage Collection, gift to Cranbrook Institute of Science from Shortmann’s, 1949. This is a small part of the large specimen at Cranbrook, A. N. Goddard Collection.
