Giant Barrel Sponge (Xestospongia testudinaria) is a giant species of sponge found in the Indo-Pacific coral reefs. It commonly occurs at depths ranging from over 10 meters to 120 meters and can grow up to a diameter of 1.8 meters. The sponge typically exhibits a brownish-red to brownish-gray coloration, with a hard or stony texture. Due to its impressive size and estimated lifespan of hundreds to possibly thousands of years, the giant barrel sponge has earned the nickname "redwood of the reef." It displays a variable form, often appearing as a large, firm, barrel-shaped structure with a cone-shaped cavity at the top called the osculum. These sponges make beautiful decorative pieces. The specimen in question originates from Luzon, Philippines.

A superb Bryozoa sps. Glass vitrine - Bryozoa (also known as the Polyzoa, Ectoprocta or commonly as moss animals) are a phylum of simple, aquatic invertebrate animals, nearly all living in sedentary colonies. Typically about 0.5 millimetres long, they have a special feeding structure called a lophophore, a "crown" of tentacles used for filter feeding. Most marine bryozoans live in tropical waters, but a few are found in oceanic trenches and polar waters. The bryozoans are classified as the marine bryozoans (Stenolaemata) 5,869 living species are known. At least, two genera are solitary (Aethozooides and Monobryozoon); all the rest are colonial.

Colonies take a variety of forms, including fans, bushes and sheets. Single animals, called zooids, live throughout the colony and are not fully independent. These individuals can have unique and diverse functions. All colonies have "autozooids", which are responsible for feeding, excretion, and supplying nutrients to the colony through diverse channels. Some classes have specialist zooids like hatcheries for fertilized eggs, colonial defence structures, and root-like attachment structures. Cheilostomata is the most diverse order of bryozoan, possibly because its members have the widest range of specialist zooids. They have mineralized exoskeletons and form single-layered sheets which encrust over surfaces, and some colonies can creep very slowly by using spiny defensive zooids as legs.

Predators of marine bryozoans include sea slugs (nudibranchs), fish, sea urchins, pycnogonids, crustaceans, mites and starfish. Chemicals extracted from a marine bryozoan species have been investigated for treatment of cancer and Alzheimer's disease, but analyses have not been encouraging.

These four different species of Bryozoa have been taken by a famous Italian diver at a deep of 40/50 m from Capo Vado – Savona coast, Italy.

Polished Orthoceras slab fossil with over 400 million years.

The name 'Apophyllite' designates a specific group of phyllosilicates, a class of minerals. Derived from the Greek 'apophyllízo,' meaning 'it flakes off,' the name reflects this group's tendency to flake apart when heated due to water loss. Typically found as secondary minerals in vesicles in basalt or volcanic rocks, apophyllites', though not widely known, are fairly prevalent globally. Specimens are sourced from some of the world's most renowned mineral localities, including Jalgaon, India, home to the famous Poona District deposits.

Apophyllite carries a potent energy for spiritual healing on a profound soul level. It proves beneficial in alleviating depression, anxiety, and stress-related issues.

Quartz geode, exhibiting vibrant colors and remarkable translucency. Sourced from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, this geode has been expertly half-polished to unveil an extraordinary interior crystal formation and the outer layers of Agate.

Geodes, known for forming in various cavities, are typically associated with more or less rounded formations in igneous and sedimentary rocks. They can develop in gas bubbles within igneous rocks, such as vesicles in basaltic lava. Following the solidification of the rock around the cavity, dissolved silicates and/or carbonates are deposited on the inner surface. Over time, a gradual influx of mineral constituents from groundwater or hydrothermal solutions facilitates the formation of crystals within the hollow chamber.

Geodes within bedrock endure weathering and decomposition, emerging at the surface if composed of resilient materials like quartz. When bisected, visible bands reflecting diverse stages of precipitation may occasionally reveal patterns indicative of fluid entry points into the cavity, along with varied colors corresponding to changes in chemistry.

Precious coral or Red coral, is the common name given to a genus of marine corals, Corallium.

The distinguishing characteristic of precious corals is their durable and intensely colored red or pink-orange skeleton, which is used for making jewelry.

This is the Corallium rubrum species they grow on rocky seabottom with low sedimentation, typically in dark environments—either in the depths or in dark caverns or crevices. The original species, C. rubrum is found mainly in the Mediterranean Sea. It grows at depths from 10 to 300 meters below sea level, although the shallower of these habitats have been largely depleted by harvesting.

Now it's a protected species, although is still fished by licenced divers at very deep water (+100 meters deep) in South Italy.

Marvel at this exquisite Geode, a natural wonder that reveals an array of vibrant Amethyst crystals alongside a stunning pinecone formation of Calcite crystals. The formation of Amethyst unfolds through a fascinating two-step process, offering a glimpse into the intricate workings of nature.

First, a hollow rock or magmatic geode emerges, shaped by the cooling of lava in conjunction with air and temperature fluctuations. Then, the second stage commences—the creation of the crystal cavity. Amethyst, known for its captivating violet hues, materializes at temperatures lower than 100°C, possibly as low as 60°C. This remarkable transformation begins as porous igneous rocks intersect with groundwater, which is rich in silicates.

As water permeates these hollow rocks, it carries dissolved silica and other minerals, eventually depositing them. The mineral-rich water flows through natural tunnels and gas bubbles within volcanic rocks, forming cavities. The initial layer that adorns the inner walls of volcanic rock is Agate, serving as the foundation for subsequent Quartz formation.
