Mineral Specimens and crystals

We aren't charging anybody anything for the thousands of trivia questions that will be on this site once completed and hope to make a buck or two from selling advertising space.

The number of people searching for free questions, coupled with my own SEO and traffic generation skills means that I estimate around 20 000 visitors per month.

If you are interested in becoming a sponsor or buying some advertising space, just drop me an email at and make me an offer.

These questions have been collected over a period of several years and nobody remembers where they came from and we don't have proof or verification of the accuracy of the answers.

Please feel free to report any wildly inaccurate answers and I'll be happy to amend them. All the questions here are supplied in good faith, so please use and have fun - but remember we are not responsible for any wrong ones!
