Welcome to my minerals web site !! My name is Marco Macchieraldo, I'm an Italian minerals collector and live in Torino, a big town in the north of Italy near the Alps mountains. I was born in 1959 and collect minerals from 1981. I created this site to show some of the best specimens from my private collection, to publish my trade lists of minerals and to spread to all the world the knowledge about Italian and alpine minerals.
Happy visit !!
