Crystal Springs Mining
Company
Crystal Springs Mining Company
has been supplying fine mineral specimens to
the trade
for over 30 years, selling
unique and rare minerals to collectors, decorators,
retailers and museums around the world. Our
staff has many years of experience in the wholesale
and retail mineral business. Annually, we participate
in the country’s two largest gem and mineral
shows – in Tucson and Denver. In February,
at the Tucson show, we can be found in the large
ballroom of the Inn Suites Hotel Lobby and in
September, at the Denver show, we can be found
in the Holiday Inn Central.
The company’s owner,
Thomas Nagin, acquires and imports minerals
from all parts of the world, including Bolivia,
Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Mexico, India and the
United States, and has owned quartz mines in
Arkansas and Colombia. Traveling directly to
the mines of South America and India, he develops
and maintains personal relationships in mining
communities and with mineral dealers in many
of these countries.
While searching for rare and
unique minerals, Mr. Nagin also has the opportunity
to purchase work from artisans in communities
throughout the world who produce sculptures,
wood and mineral carvings, hand-woven textiles,
gold & silver jewelry, butterfly displays,
furniture, fine art and many other unique items.
We maintain relationships with these craftsmen
and their finest work can be found in our Gallery.
