New Mineral Species, 



Geikielite is a titanate of magnesia from the gem washings of Ceylon. All ex- 

 cept small lots, sold to three museums, was secured. Small pieces $1 to $5each. 



Boleite, the beautiful chloride of silver, copper and lead whose unique twins 

 change our ideas as to the simplicity of the cube, is believed by the discoverer to 

 be exhausted. I secured from him nearly all that have been collected excepting a 

 few which had been previously disposed of. Good cubes 10 cents to $5. The extra 

 rare twins $1 to $5. Sections for the microscope $1.25. 



Svabite. the new ax-senate of lime described by Prof. Sjogren of Sweden, is the 

 last species mentioned in the new Dana's Mineralogy. Groups of crystals 50 cents 

 to $2 each. 



Eudidymite was obtained during a week's stay at the celebrated Langesund 

 Fiord. This beautiful twinned beryllium-sodium zeolite is so rare that the discov- 

 erer has no duplicates. Groups and contact twins 50 cents to $5. Twin crystals 

 10 cents to $2.
