Hello and Welcome to my Homepage As a German mineralogist I spent over 12 years (from 1988 to 2000) in Mexico, where I worked as a geologist in precious metal exploration. Currently I am living in Germany, however I travel to Mexico several times per year, sometimes because I perform a working contract, but a principal interest is the search of mineral specimens. Most of the minerals I offer have been purchased or swapped directly from the mine personnel and Mexican mineral collectors, but from time to time I also have the possibility to collect minerals by myself. Although there exist uncountable possibilities to collect minerals in the field or in abandoned mining districts, over 80% of the top quality Mexican mineral specimens are recovered from active mines. I will continue with my efforts in exploring Mexico for the finest mineral specimens. I hope you enjoy my mineral galleries. Matthias Jurgeit

Currently I am heavily involved in geologic exploration work. Therefore I am almost not able to attend my website. Nevertheless I still dedicate some of my time for searching mineral specimens and I will continue with my presence in the mineral show of Sainte-Marie aux Mines, France. During my last trips to Mexico I found a couple of very nice fluorite specimens from Naica, deeply pink calcite crystals (also from Naica), stunning pale purple calcite twin crystals from the San Martin deposit and a lot of very nice apatite specimens from Durango. My top-specimens are shown on the page “The Finestâ€. Note: Special discount from 35 to 50% for dealers only on June 25, 2009 in Sainte-Marie. |
