Welcome back Lucy! Craig has ordered up some wheels in case one of the grinders goes South on us. Roz has been shopping again she found a good quality metal cabinet for storage. Two procedures are forthcoming one dealing with locking out a machine and the other is the down and dirty on body fluids cleanup. Hope we never have to use either one. Pam, you done good excellent presentation last month. I ve heard a lot of chatter about doing dig. Will someone step forward; do the homework and get one started. I suspect it would be well supported. This month, Craig s Mineral ID talk will resume. Another great topic. Rock Swap swapping, trading and bartering are key words. KARS Park is the place on May 6. We ask each involved to kick in a nominal table fee to recoup our expenses. Thinking of adding finger food as a potluck. Feedback. Heard Tomoka is interested in coming down. Think we need to go easy on the SELL KARS is not a commercial operation. Picnic on track. Meat and drink on us. Signup for potluck and your choice of hotdog, hamburger or bratwurst. Don t forget the auction to follow Goodies being raffled off. Get your tickets now. April 22 is the day, noon is the time, and Picnic area 2 at KARS Park is the place. Tom Brown 2017 President

4 Page 4 In Memoriam Louis Nickolopoulos died at home Tuesday evening, March 21. Lou, with wife Sue, retired from New Jersey to Florida in He and Sue joined CBRGC in 1995 and became avid jewelry artists. Lou did bead knotting and stringing which was quite a contrast to his career in law enforcement. Sue did faceting. Lou became Club President in 2000 while Sue was Show Chairman. They had a booth at the club show from 1998 through Lou was a member of the last Bylaws Committee in 2015 which Sue chaired. We will miss his wit, intelligence, humor, and greatly appreciate his many contributions to the club over the last 20 years. Happy Birthday to our Members born in April!

7 Page 7 April s Mineral Star Blue Quartz Alabama s State Gemstone Quartz is an abundant mineral in Alabama rocks. Several varieties of quartz are valuable as gemstones, including the popular amethyst variety. Alabama's state gem is the Star Blue Quartz, (SiO2,) Silicon dioxide. It is one of the most beautiful gemstones on earth, and the cheapest because there are so many. There are also other states with quartz. With the approval of a bill proposed by Senator Don Hale, Cullman County, the star blue quartz was named the official gemstone for the State of Alabama by Act no in Most quartz is a souvenir of volcanoes, which melt silica, which is then carried by water into crevices, where it crystallizes. Such quartz often includes traces of other minerals picked up by water flowing underground. Crystalline form of silica SiO2, one of the most abundant minerals of the Earth's crust (12% by volume). Quartz occurs in many different kinds of rock, including sandstone and granite. It ranks 7 on the Mohs scale of hardness and is resistant to chemical or mechanical breakdown. Quartzes vary according to the size and purity of their crystals. Crystals of pure quartz are coarse, colourless, transparent, show no cleavage, and fracture unevenly; this form is usually called rock crystal. Impure colored varieties, often used as gemstones, include agate, citrine quartz, and amethyst. Quartz is also used as a general name for the cryptocrystalline and noncrystalline varieties of silica, such as chalcedony, chert, and opal. There is different colored quartz. New Hampshire has smokey, South Dakota rose, Arkansas and Georgia star blue. Quartz is made into glass, eyeglasses, electrical components, abrasives, and gemstone and building stone. Some forms of Quartz, especially the gemstone forms, have their color enhanced. There is a transparent sky blue form of Quartz crystals, as well as a wildly iridescent type that are synthetically colored by irradiation of gold. In some localities, Hematite forms a thin red or brown layer internally in the Quartz crystal, giving it a natural bright red to brown coloring, and sometimes even a mild natural iridescence. Information from ereferencedesk.com, Minerals.net Physical Properties of Star Blue Quartz Chemical Formula SiO 2 Chemical Classification Cleavage Color Crystal System Crystal Forms and Aggregates Fracture Luster Silicon Dioxide Indiscernible. Seldom exhibits parting. Colorless, white, purple, pink, brown, and black. Also gray, green, orange, yellow, blue, and red. Sometimes multicolored or banded. Hexagonal Crystals, which are hexagonal in shape, vary in shape and size. Quartz crystals are unique and very identifiable with their pointed and often uneven terminations. Crystals can be in enormous prismatic and stubby crystals, or in pointed aggregates of such crystals. Crystals are usually striated horizontally, and are sometimes doubly terminated. Quartz crystal habits include drusy, grainy, bladed, as linings of geodes, as rounded waterworn pebbles, radiating, as pointy pyramids on a matrix, as dense agglomerations of small crystals, massive, globular, stalactitic, crusty, in nodules, and in amygdules. Conchoidal Vitreous. Transparent, colorless Quartz crystals from a few distinct localities may be adamantine.
