Mineral and Crystals Specimen Identification
Project Description
LONG-TERM TESTING
Small Shop specializing in various minerals, specimens, and crystals needs Laboratory for identification of supply of material that was received that contains inaccurate identification.. My goal is to have accurate details to help identify these materials with accurate information. For example, I've obtained something that was shared with me that contains several minerals such as, Chrysocolla, Turquoise, Azurite and Ajoite in a quartz matrix. This seems unlikely since Ajoite is found in 2 locations in the world and as far as I know, Azurite and Ajoite are not found in the same location. I was told it contains up to 8 minerals that also included Shattuckite, Dioptase, hematite and malachite; copper minerals. The testing I look to accomplish would be on a small scale since we're a small business, however I'd need testing done on a regular bases considering we're accumulating dozens of different materials on a monthly bases.
