Hey guys!
I thought id share this with you all, at my lapidary club's meeting tonight in Uralla i had a member bring his microscope he uses to view all his micro-mount crystals. These involve small specimens of different minerals in rocks that are almost perfectly formed, viewed under a microscope its amazing!

This is of a STIBNITE crystal on quartz that was taken from Hillgrove gold mine, east of Armidale.....they are almost in full swing out there and they pull out some wonderful specimens of crystal whilst mining antimony and gold.

The crystal measures 2mm across, i had to fit my LPI imager to the microscope by removing one of the removable eyepieces and as the microscope eyepiece tube has the same OD as the LPI 1-1/4" adaptor
i was able to "sticky-tape" the imager to the tube!

So i took this image!
