Minerales del Mundo
Welcome to Minerales del Mundo, a space born out of our passion for mineralogy where we share technical information on the nature, chemical formula and deposits of minerals. We also include a -New Age- section dedicated to their mystical and ancient properties, always clearly distinguishing these from the scientific basis and treating them as part of the sector’s popular culture.Without any grand pretensions, our sole aim is to enjoy and share mineralogy together.
