Tucson remains as busy as always, and with so much going on and so little time to report it, I've decided to put everything left in the run-up to the TGMS show in one report. This also includes an update on things I didn't get to write about in the previous reports on Inn Suites and Pueblo.My previous report for the Pueblo Show was written before I'd had a chance to visit all the dealers - here is the update.Fine Art Minerals specialise in minerals from Pakistan and Afghanistan.sell an enormous number of rare and unusual mineral species.is a dealer I had not come across before with some interesting items:, another dealer who hasn't appeared on these reports before, had an interesting selection of good pegmatite gem minerals.Every year Kristalle and Crystal Classics host a themed party - and this year the theme was Jamaica!John Veevaert, Steve Perry and Brett Keller had an open-house to show John and Steve's minerals and Brett's wine.Fine Minerals International have a superb building right next door to the Inn Suites show.Every year we have a mindat.org meeting - and as usual this year it was held in Rock Currier'sballroom at the Inn Suites.The weekend prior to the TGMS show is the Westward Look show, where a smaller number of fine mineral specimen dealers set up in this exclusive resort for four days.had a new find of cuprite from the Milpillas mine, Mexico.had bigger pieces of the interesting Chalcocite from China that we'd seen previously withThe fourth and final report will come shortly from the TGMS show!
