NY-NJ Gem & Mineral Show Report - Part 2: Exhibit Showcases

Pictured below are the public exhibit showcases that were presented at the show. The first 15 are in the order of their display in the show hall. These exhibits were the first thing that people saw as they walked into the entrance of the show. The fluorescent minerals at the end of the page were in the fluorescent mineral gallery, and are just a sample of a few of the many fluorescent showcases. Note that the warmer and cooler colors on different images are due to the light bulb temperature of each case.
