Today we’re raising a toast (and maybe a margarita) to Tucson — not just a hub of celebration, but a true epicenter for the mineral collecting world. From its rich Southwestern geology to the world-famous Tucson Gem & Mineral Show®, this city is where mineral dreams come to life.
Arizona’s earth is packed with treasures — think wulfenite from the Red Cloud Mine, chrysocolla with its brilliant blues, and the vibrant azurite and malachite that have long captured collectors’ hearts. Whether you’re here for the crystals, the community, or the carne asada — there’s no better place to be a rockhound today.
Viva los minerales y viva Tucson! 🎉💎🌵
