Forecast: 15-30
Attained: 13-32


Helen, one of our library volunteers, and her husband have been prospecting for years. She frequently brings in samples from their collection, which naturally I tend to squeal over.

Today she brought in a lump of malachite (polished) from Sth Australia.

[drool] I love malachite...




And a pic with ruler so you can see how big this sucker is! 15cm across!




I... I just wanted to pet it. (Well, more truthfully I wanted to nick it :)

I can't remember if I've scoffed at the Bic for Her pens here or not - I think I have - but anyway, Ellen Degeneres has a thing or two to say on the subject...
