This is my small and modest personal collection of about 100 rocks and minerals mostly of Fluorite and Labradorite. My family is a family of rock-hounds. Compared to my family (my sister, my 4 children, and my parents), my collection is very small. My grandfather, Ralph Cash, was a fluorite spar miner. So in a way, I collect fluorite in horor of him...
and I love the beauty of minerals, especially Fluorite.
Cataloging my collection is a slow process Catalog Note
