Here's a little piece of placoderm, found in a glacial erratic, out of the MI. Basin. I think the blue is due to manganese.

2nd is a peak at whats going to be coming in a new thread *winks*

Macropus titan, a species of kangaroo. Blue enough for ya? (Or is it more purple? Looks bluer in the sun also). Really need to get those 2 outside on a clear day for pics.
