| The Collector’s Edge Minerals, Inc. frequently assembles special exhibits of important mineral specimens for display at major Gem and Mineral Shows, temporary museum exhibits, and special projects. It is critical to us that these special displays are aesthetically pleasing and professional in appearance. We use The Sunnywood Collection to create custom-fitted acrylic specimen stands for the mineral specimens that will be included in all of our special displays. During the past few years, we have trusted Sunnywood to create bases for: 1. A gathering of the top orpiment specimens from the spectacular discovery at Newmont Mining Corporation’s Twin Creeks Gold Mine (debuted at the 1999 Denver Gem & Mineral Show). 2. A superb collection of Gold, Platinum, and Platinum-bearing specimens from Siberia (displayed at the 2001 Tucson Gem & Mineral Show; currently the major pieces of this collection are on display at the National Mining Hall of Fame and Museum in Leadville, Colorado) 3. The top rhodochrosite specimens from the company’s Sweet Home Mine specimen collection (displayed at the 2002 Denver Gem and Mineral Show). 4. A large Sweet Home Mine rhodochrosite specimen (presented in 2002 by the Colorado School of Mines to the Petroleum Institute in Abu Dhabi, UAE). 5. The company’s impressive collection of Chinese mineral specimens (displayed at the 2003 Tucson Gem and Mineral Show). 6. Numerous other specimens for special displays and for important specimens from our retail inventory. Sunnywood’s custom bases are expertly crafted to properly orient and securely hold each mineral specimen at its optimum viewing position. The clear acrylic bases are unobtrusive, allowing the mineral specimens to claim “center stage”. We take pride in our mineral specimen displays and we believe that Sunnywood’s high quality mineral specimen stands greatly enhance the overall appearance of these displays! | | - Brian Lees, President, Collector's Edge Minerals, Inc. |
