Munich Show 2012
Last Updated: 29th Oct 2012
I've just returned from the Munich Show, the largest mineral and gem show in Europe - here's some of my favourite things from the show. I also did an article on the mineral dealers and displays here, on mindat.org.
The theme of the show this year is Africa, and Paul Wild had a significant display of African gemstones within the main display.
A special section to promote Brazilian gems and dealers had an excellent display of Tourmaline from the Santa Rosa mine.
Heavily included diamonds can sometimes still be interesting as jewellery items.
I had a positive discussion with Gyrstones.com, a gemstone marketplace website. Hopefully we will build up a good relationship between our two sites
Finally, I found my mineral friends Kristina Bode and Ed Loye having some sneaky private meeting in the middle of the gem hall, far away from all of the mineral people. I promised them I would not upload this photo on mindat.org
More show news soon!
