Our needs
We are interested in top class minerals.
We are always looking for fine minerals and if you have a collection to sell or know someone who sells his collection, please contact us.
As we are specialised on minerals from Africa, here is a list of minerals from the Democratic Republic of the Congo that might interest us in priority.
- Cuprite
- Primary malachite
- Cobaltoan calcite
- Orange barite
- Stalactites of Malachite or chrysocolla
- Torbernite, Cuprosklodowskite, marthozite and more rare minerals from Musonoï or Shinkolobwe mine
- Native copper on Cobaltaon dolomite
If you have some other specimens from the Congo, or from somewhere else in Africa, or in the World, we are of course interested.

A BIT OF HISTORY
We are travelling all year long to collect fine minerals Directly in the source of production. We are travelling in Pakistan & Afghanistan, well kown destinations for worldclass fine mineral specimens such as aquamarine, tourmalines, garnets, apatites and many superb rocks !!! We have been travelling for years in Democratic Republic of Congo and Zambia for gems and for classic minerals such as Cobaltoan calcites, cuprites, botroydal & stalactite malachites, chrysocollas, dioptases, Carrollites and more fine mineral specimens... Born in Casablanca, Morocco was a logical destination for hunting minerals. Worldclass fine Azurites, erythrites, vanadnites, accanthites, argentites, were discovered in the past from this superb country.
More recently we went back, years after our late father, to China and to Namibia... Fantastic rocks were found there... Amethyst sceptres, dioptases, fluorites, bournonites, calcites, Beryls... And lots of more fine mineral specimens.... We, my brother and I, hope you will enjoy visiting our website.
Best regards... Brice & Christophe Gobin.
