My Minerals has been a personal project crafted with passion, dedication, and a deep love for geology.
This site represents my journey in exploring the natural world, and I hope it serves as an informative and inspiring resource for all who visit.
Thank you for exploring My Minerals. Your curiosity and interest in the wonders of the earth are truly appreciated!
Even tho I built this site alone, I have to thanks many people.
Starting by my family, I thank my parents that supported and encouraged my through this project and my brother that gave me advices and tested this site.
I thank my friends, including a geologist I met during this path, for complimenting this site.

Books on geology, mineralogy, and paleontology were key in offering in-depth knowledge and insight. These resources were fundamental in detailing the formation processes, properties, and applications of each specimen.
Online Databases and Repositories:
I relied on trusted online platforms like the Mineralogical Society of America, and the Smithsonian Institution’s online archives to gather information and ensure accuracy.
