Who's going to Tucson? I'm heading out early next week. I'll be seeking
some specific fossils and mostly looking at minerals and visiting the Alfie
Norville Mineral & Gem Museum to meet with the curator. Helping the
Kentucky Science Center rehome a suite of early 20th-century Bisbee azurite
and malachite. (Sorry, it can only go to educational institutions, not
collectors.)

The Ben E. Clement Mineral Museum in Marion, KY, picked up the Tharp
Mineral collection from the KSC last fall. It's about 6,000 specimens ca
1869-1970, consisting of mostly U.S. localities with plenty of obscure /
long-closed localities.

Regards,
Alan G.
