I love the 3D structure renderings that can rotated But the interface is modal so you must back out of a listing just to see the photos There should be but a single screen for each mineral that I can just scroll I would also appreciate a wiggle mode for the 3D structures                 Needs a new interface MrPebius
Would have given a 5 star rating if it had more pictures                 Great app Kayla00pink
Finally Professional and advanced armatures rejoice this is the app for which you have waited Brilliant A must                     Amazing okbdc
Should have expected this to come from Tasa Every serious geologist should have a copy the only thing I would like to add is the capacity to create a custom library Again awesome app Well done guys                     Stunning App Lib25geo
Great app for helping identify minerals Some of the optical properties are missing and the organization is lacking For example if you look up chlorite there is no general formula or properties for a crucial mineral They have end members with some properties Overall great app maybe worth 5 Not 10                 Close to 5 stars Hagrid's Lair
This is an easy reference to identify minerals with stunning photographs Although the photomicrographs are not the best examples for id under the scope I am a geology undergrad student who used the mineralogy textbook written by the same authors who make this app If you are familiar with the book you will find this to be similar to the database on the cd only with a very nice iPad interface Searches are made easier with results that do not take you away from the search page I wish there were more photomicrographs for the big ten minerals at least The only example for albite shows zoning with an arrow but does not make this clear anywhere there should be a few examples to help with identifying these minerals under the scope For the rock hound this app is five stars                 Best mineral app Arketekton
A must have for mineralogy students An easy to use well organized mineral database Each mineral entry has physical optical and chemical properties Images include hand samples AND thin sections there is even a little button to show polarized light My only gripe is I hate to read pages with reversed type white letters black background it s just too hard on the eyes after a while                     Excellent ispragg
