Gifts or barted minerals during the Kopparberg 2000 mineral fair.

	Corundum One day when I got back from the work there was a letter sticking out of my letterbox. I tried to get itout, but it was stuck in there. Finally I had to tear apart the envelope and finally I only had a rock stuck in my letterbox! With the help of a crowbar I finally got it loose. In the envelope there was a letter and a rock. A part of a corundum crystal with a rim of margarite in andesine. I got it in return for some rock I gave to Anders Persson when we met during the fair. I had forgot about it all so it was a really nice surprise.
