Painite Locality: Ohngaing (Ohn Gaing; Ohn Kai), Mogok, Sagaing District, Mandalay Division, Burma (Myanmar) (Locality at mindat.org) Size: 0.9 x 0.8 x 0.7 cm. Painite is a very rare calcium, zirconium, aluminum borate unique to several localities in the Mogok area of Burma. This euhedral crystal is from the Type Locality. It is highly lustrous and striated, reddish-brown and is translucent on the edges. Very little of this very rare material has come out recently. Mineral

A polished section containing the following 4 extremely rare palladium minerals: palarstanide, plumbopalladinite, polarite and atokite in a completely analyzed specimen by SEM/EDS. From: Noril'sk, Putoran Plateau, Taimyr Peninsula, Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russian Federation. Ex Vandenbroucke Museum collection from Waregem, Belgium. Mineral

Dark red crystals of palenzonaite, a very rare Ca-Na-Mn vanadate found only in a very few localities worldwide. This sample comes from Molinello (Molinello Mine, Graveglia Valley, Liguria, Italy), the most typical locality for the mineral and also the type locality. Mineral

Palermoite Locality: Palermo No. 1 Mine (Palermo #1 pegmatite), Groton, Grafton County, New Hampshire, USA (Locality at mindat.org) Size: small cabinet, 7.2 x 5.2 x 4.7 cm Palermoite Palermoite is a very rare phosphate, first found in 1952 at this type locality for the species. To date, it has been found at just a few other locales, and still these crystals are the best. This particularly rich specimen is one of the larger, richer specimens with display aesthetics overall, according to Bob Whitmore. It has hundreds of palermoite crystals, many still covered by pocket clay just the way he found it. The top portion has been cleaned a bit, to reveal sharp crystals to 4mm nicely contrasted on lustrous, dark smoky quartz. Ex. Robert Whitmore Collection. Mineral

A lot of black granules of the extremely rare palladium selenide palladseite in a completely analyzed specimen by SEM/EDS from a locality in Brazil (Serra Pelada Claims, Curionópolis, Carajás Province, Pará, Brazil). Presence of O, C and Si in the spectrum is due to residual carbonates, silicates and atmospheric O2. Atomic ratios in the spectrum are only approximate, due to the technique used. Ex Vandenbroucke Museum collection from Waregem, Belgium. Mineral

An electron micrograph of volcanic sublimates (minerals) in natural colors. Two different forms of copper molybdate Cu3O(MoO4)2 (cupromolybdite) – a mineral from fumarolic incrustations, Tolbachik, Kamchatka. Both forms of the mineral - bright yellow needles and massive brown crystals (right) - have the same composition and structure. The image also contains copper sulfate fedotovite K2Cu3O(SO4)3 (fine green crystals), langbeinite K2Mg2(SO4)3 (light gray crystals on top of the image), and palmierite (K, Na)2Pb(SO4)2 (light pseudohexagonal tabular crystals). Image size is 350 microns along the long side. Mineral

Extremely rare. Panasqueraite occurs at only two locations, and these are in the same district. This crystalline, massive panasqueiraite is classic for its habit and tannish-flesh color. The luster is actually very good, and I am told this would be a very rich specimen. The remaining parts of the piece is gray quartz, bladed but incomplete ferberite, and muscovite crystals. Ex. Art Soregaroli Collection. From: Panasqueira Mines, Covilhã, Castelo Branco, Portugal. Mineral
