About

Nevada Mineral & Book Company is a unique shopping experience for those who are interested in geology, minerals, gems and natural history. We have one of the largest selections of minerals, fossils, gems, jewelry and earth science publications and maps in the United States. We acquire our mineral and fossil specimens from sources worldwide, and buy many of our gems from master gem cutters and major international gem dealers. We select unique and authentic items with known provenance, so you can be confident that you are getting the best quality and price.

If you are interested in publications on geology, mineralogy, paleontology, gemology, mining and mining history, we have one of the most extensive inventories in North America.

We specialize in colored gemstones, common and rare. Whether you are looking for an amethyst or a benitoite, we either have it in stock, or can get it quickly from our network of master gem cutters and gem dealers worldwide.

We have our own goldsmiths, gem cutters and jewelry designer, so we can create virtually any type of jewelry, in silver , gold or platinum. We also size rings, do repairs and replace lost or damaged gemstones. Additionally, we can modify your existing jewelry, from replacing the head to accommodate a larger gem, to converting a brooch to a pendant. Stop in or call us to schedule a jewelry or gemstone consultation.



We have a large inventory of gemstones, many of which are cut to ideal weight and proportions, meaning you get a bright, lively gemstone, and don't pay more than you have to for it.

Walter S. Lombardo June 25 at 6:44 PM · I had the opportunity to take my friend and fellow mineral dealer Dale Harwood out for a birthday dinner. Dale turns 72 on Saturday. In this era of quarantines and social distancing it's nice to be able to surprise someone who normally would not have the opportunity to celebrate with others.

I haven't posted in quite a while. Here are some very nice synthetic quartz crystals that I purchased years ago from a quality control manager at the Alexandrov synthetic crystal factory in Russia. I have sold several specimens to dealers recently, so I thought it might be a good idea to post them for my Instagrammers. Besides being interesting specimens, they are great teaching specimens to show a material used in the electronic industry. They are also great cutting material for faceters. I have other sizes and shapes available.
Walter S. Lombardo February 22 at 11:23 AM · I have been so busy lately that I have not been on Facebook much in the past month. I did get my second Moderna Covid vaccine today. The first round went well, the only side effect I had was a sore arm for two days. I expect to have a few more side effects from the second dose, fatigue and muscle pain most likely. Will keep everyone informed if there are any issues in the next few days.
