About Us! Our Business
Mineral Store has been trading since 2012. Tony Forsyth identified a market for the supply of fine minerals and crystals into the Queensland and Australian market and set up the business to cater both for discerning collectors, and just about anyone who can admire the beauty and perfection of great mineral specimens.
David Bissett, who had been trading at shows since 2009, purchased Mineral Store Australia from Tony and Jude in 2021.
We are in Birkdale in bayside Brisbane, approx 30mins by car east of the Brisbane CBD. We predominantly trade from Gemshows however we sometimes are able to welcome visitors to home at Birkdale by appointment.
Since opening, Mineral Store Australia has gained a great reputation amongst a loyal group of collectors and crystal admirers. We have our own Facebook page where you can catch up on the latest news on shows we attend as well as new material offered for sale.
We regularly travel within Australia and overseas to purchase mineral stock for sale.
In January 2025 David and Janelle travelled to Tucson to hand select high quality mineral and crystal specimens to add to our stock for the 2025 shows.
In January 2026 David and Janelle again travelled to Tucson, allowing them to again select specimens to add to our extensive stock.
We offer very reasonable prices on all our pieces, and with quality to suit any collector or institution.
