Greetings.....I'm Darrel, founder of Proton Minerals. I have now been selling minerals on eBay for 12 years. Most of the items I list here on eBay are good quality aesthetic mineral specimens, rare species, and fluorescent minerals from worldwide localities with an emphasis on minerals from Canada, especially those from Mont Saint-Hilaire, Quebec and Rapid Creek, Yukon.
Normally I list one batch of specimens each month with anywhere from 30 to 50 specimens. Besides minerals, I also list the occasional meteorite, tektite, and fossil. Email me if you would like an email notification of when a new listing has been posted on eBay. My address is: darrel@protonminerals.com

Why buy from proton*minerals ?
- Quality Specimens. All specimens are guaranteed to be 100% genuine. All are natural specimens from the Earth, trimmed, cleaned, and ready to put into your collection. I do not list specimens that are synthetically grown, repaired, or assembled "specimens" consisting of crystals that have been carefully glued on to a matrix. As well, none of the specimens have been heat treated, irradiated, or dyed to enhance their color.
- Specimen Information. Overall size of the specimen in both inches and centimeters given in each listing. Locality information and a brief description are also included. I do my best to provide clear photos in each and every auction.
- Prompt and Secure Shipping. In most cases specimens are sent out in less than 24 hours after payment is received. Specimens are packed with the greatest of care to arrive in perfect condition. Customers who receive damaged items will be fully reimbursed.
- Reasonable Shipping Rates. Customers in Canada and the U.S. pay only $7.00 for combined shipping regardless of the number of specimens won from that month's listing! See below for more details.
- Personalized Service. No automated emails are sent to you, all correspondence regarding your purchase is personally sent by me. Although sometimes I am away travelling, I normally reply to your messages promptly.
