All images

Robert “Rob” Lavinsky, PhD (view his biography on minrec.org) donated his complete picture database on mindat.org, as well as all his pictures from his own homepage irocks.com (collected in several galleries respectively alphabetically sorted by mineral name).


Contents

[edit] Technical part

The pictures on mindat have been uploaded to Commons in two batches

by the robot RKBot, they have been categorized and mineral names and localities have been translated to German. The pictures are in Category:Images by Rob Lavinsky

[edit] To do

Your help is needed to

  • translate the remaining descriptions

[edit] More pictures needed?

Furthermore Rob Lavinsky offered more pictures from his private archive (about 20,000).

Please leave a note here describing pictures of minerals needed for a mineral article. Rob Lavinsky will be asked after a while. If he has any picture of the requested pictures, we can get them

[edit] Image requests

Remarks: All mineral categories have been created so far: So if the category shows up in red above, there was no such mineral with Rob's images (however, there is a small chance that the mineral has a different spelling with mindat.org).

[edit] Image list

The image list is obsolete now, since the comparison with the irocks.com images will be done by the bot.

[edit] Duplicate images and bad names

These exist, and are being collected at
