Beautiful rubies in a micaceous schist from Mysore, India. They’re hard, they look nice and they are wonderfully fluorescent in UV light. Vote #Corundum for the 2020 ⁦@MineralCup⁩ champion! #Ruby #HardSchist – at Cardiff, Wales

Gold is incredible - it is extremely dense (1 tonne = 37cm cube), very ductile (1oz can stretch to 8km thread), an excellent conductor, is edible (vodka!), very difficult to find (...) and has the most alluring colour of any material. It has my vote! #MinCup2019 #Ausome
