“The worldwide hunt for a little-known critical mineral has seen trucks moving for the first time in more than a decade at the historic Hillgrove mine just outside #Armidale.
Known for gold mining during the 19th century, the #NorthernTablelands mine has been re-energised by growing worldwide demand for antimony.
The #mineral is found in a variety of products, including fire #retardants, #SolarPanelCells, #StorageBatteries and defence manufacturing.”

Barely squeaking in here for #TextureTuesday with a surprisingly pretty pile of abandoned road salt. It looks like the salt that dissolved in rain is recrystallizing on the larger, intact crystals. There’s probably a chemistry term for this…?

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🔍💎 A single .32 gram #crystal from #Myanmar’s #Mogok region, named #kyawthuite, is the only natural specimen of its #mineral ever documented. Found in 2010 and recognized in 2015, its unusual bismuth-antimony-oxide structure remains unmatched.

Hype for the Future 133W: Hawthorne, Nevada
Overview Hawthorne is an unincorporated community within the boundaries of Mineral County, Nevada, and serves as the county seat. Since the county is home to zero (0) incorporated communities, the county seat must therefore be an unincorporated community, and in the case of Hawthorne, the unincorporated area claims a population of over three thousand (3,000) residents with the Hawthorne Ordnance Museum and the Hawthorne Army Depot situated nearby.https://novatopflex.wordpress.com/2026/03/13/hype-for-the-future-133w-hawthorne-nevada/

Here's a transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image of #bone showing mineralized #collagen and an #osteocyte lacuna containing microcalcifications of #apatite and #whitlockite.
Such #calcification or #mineral formation is part of normal physiological processes such as #apoptosis but can also indicate #pathology.
The specimen was prepared using focussed ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM).
