Minerals

As this entire website is really a tribute to mathematics and science education,
it seems logical to me to offer you other aspects of natural beauty.
One of my hobbies is the collecting of minerals.
And so, with this and following pages,
I offer pictures of various minerals in spherical shape.

As of a few years ago, there are 59 mineral spheres shown.
You can follow the links below to get to them.
