New Collectors and Specimens

We are seeing more collectors joining and showing their precious minerals on EarthWonders. Did you know you can like other collectors' specimens, leave comments on the specimens, and even send them an irresistible offer?

We have Andreas Empl, a.k.a. Mineral Andy, on EarthWonders. The first thing that caught our eye was his Alien Eye fluorite from Namibia. He seems to be a fluorite connoisseur and has a good fluorite collection. Check out his full collection here.

Here is what happened at Nanjing Show!!

The Nanjing Mineral Expo is getting more interesting every year, and our founder, Will Jessup, attended this year's event. He had the opportunity to meet friends, dealers, and collectors from around the world. With more than 500 exhibitors from over 50 countries, you could say that the show is heating up every year.

$30M Sale Sets Record at Nanjing Expo!

Yes, you heard that right! A buyer purchased around 100 top grade minerals for $30M (~210 million yuan). This was surprising because only that morning in Nanjing, a record for the highest sale had occurred at around $1M in a single transaction (~6.8 million yuan), and this $30M sale happened in the afternoon. Imagine how exciting it must have been at the event with these record-breaking sales!

The mysterious buyer did not want to reveal too much about his personal details when reporters approached him. Hello, mysterious buyer! If you are reading this, we have an anonymous feature where you can showcase your minerals without revealing your personal identity. We've got your back! :)
