Testimonials

“I have been purchasing from Steve and Sandi from the

Tamarack mineral Company for over 10 years. I have pur-

chased many an amazing specimen for amazing prices that sit

proudly in my many display cases in my home. I have so many

specimens from Sandi and Steve I could have a Tamarack min-

eral Museum! They are true mineral and rock enthusiasts that

love helping others enjoy their passion. They have become re-

ally great friends over the years as well and always are willing

to help you find a particular specimen that you are looking for

that they may not have at the moment. They know their miner-

als (I myself have a bachelors and masters in geological engi-

neering from Michigan Tech University and know a thing or

two about rocks and minerals), are very fair with their prices,

and truly love the rock and mineral trade. Once you buy from

them you become a friend. That is how they run their

business.”
