A personal note from Mark Cole, MinerShop
"As many of my followers have noticed, I (Mark) have retired from active sales. My daughter, Valerie, has joined the MinerShop crew and will be taking over our sales. She has assumed my large inventory of Greenland and other world-wide minerals, has learned to take the same great photos you've come to expect, and will offer the same great service you've gotten used to. She grew up around these minerals and, thankfully, got the glow-bug herself at a young age. A father's dream to have one of his children appreciate our hobby, insuring a home for his lifetime's passion. Please support her in this transition, and be assured I'm behind her every step of the way."
