FossilDudeCO Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I figure a lot of us here share the same interests, one of the things I do is collect sand samples from places I go. I have a few extras I would like to trade. These are each 3 dram vials, approximately 11mL per vial. The first is - Black Sand, Punaluʻu Beach, Big Island Hawai'i collected on a trip in 2009 - 3 available. second is - Topaz, Topaz Mountain, Millard County Utah, collected in 2011 - 2 available (I Know it's slightly larger than sand but it fit in my vials!) Third is - Garnet Sand / Purple Sand, Emerald Creek Idaho, collected in 2014 - 5 available Last one is - Volcanic sand, Amalfi Coast, Salerno, Italy collected in 2015 - 5 available (supposedly this is rock from Mt. Vesuvius that is broken down by the waves over the years.) I also have sand and rocks from the Jurassic aged Morrison Formation in Morrison, Colorado. Let me know if there is any interest for that, I can post pictures as well! I would mostly be interested in growing my sand collection, but I am open to fossil trades as well! Let me know what you have and we can work something out I'm sure! I may want a couple of sand samples for the topaz It is not easy stuff to collect or clean! Hope everyone had a safe and happy new years!!! -Blake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimravis Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Blake, i wish i saw saw this a couple months ago because I had various sand samples from across the Western US that I disposed of, literally. Sorry- when I go to other places, I will try to remember and collect some for you. Ralph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bone Daddy Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I have a bunch of sands. Florida beaches. Green olivine sand from Hawaii. Vesuvius ash (not sand, but you mentioned Vesuvius), sand from the Trinity Test site, Saharan Desert, and a few others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
