Had a lovely trip to Donna Nook seal colony in North Lincolnshire the last few days. Absolutely magical. Fell in love with all the pups there again. Well worth the trip this time of year - cold as it was!

Water isn't a mineral but Ice is. :D
The first three general characteristics are less debated than the last two.[2] The first criterion means that a mineral has to form by a natural process, which excludes anthropogenic compounds. Stability at room temperature, in the simplest sense, is synonymous to the mineral being solid. More specifically, a compound has to be stable or metastable at 25 °C. Classical examples of exceptions to this rule include native mercury, which crystallizes at ?39 °C, and water ice, which is solid only below 0 °C; as these two minerals were described prior to 1959, they were grandfathered by the International Mineralogical Association (IMA)
