The Spring River Gem and Mineral Club located in Cherokee Village AK. is interested in doing a Rock Swap. They would swap at least 10# of mineral and/or fossil specimens, gathered on club and individual field trips.  We use the flat rate medium size  Post office boxes, costing $10.70 to mail. Their Club Box would include pink dolomite, chalcedony, calcite and druzy quartz. If any member is interested please let me know.
