Of course I like all the gemstones especially sapphire
There is a building in Chicago, near the Sears Tower that is covered in pink granite or quartz (shiny speckles) it is so pretty. (it was the AT&T building not sure what it's called now) Also the floors in the lobby area are all a beautiful mosaic of stone.
I could be more knowledgeable about names, sorry.

I have always found mica fascinating. I enjoy seeing the geology change as I travel. I live in the Rocky Mountains & it is amazing how one range is differing from the ones next to it.

My favorite is calcite. Any material with a double refractive index is just cool.
