I started minerals trip from 14th-20th July 2010, the minerals trip line is ShangHai-Chenzhou area-Ganzhou area-ShangHai. During this trip, I collected fluorescent minerals on Xianghualing mine in night, also found a piece of favorite crystal specimen in Jiangxi province. Here is a short report about this trip, hope you would like to have a look.
Some photos below is made by my mobilephone(my camera battery is empty that time.)

I am interested in these wood houses. Looks interesting.
a miner store house, a lot of green fluorite big pieces, just need more cleanning work. Some pieces are good for display.

Of course, photos below be got by my camera--now battery is ok :-)
On the way to some local miners or mineral dealers home, landscape is nice on the way.
nice green coverage on the mountains there, I like the green color.
I was glad though I did not found many interesting crystal minerals during this trip, because of slow mining and new material show up so slowly there. Whatever I found one favorite piece during this trip. See below
Perfect nice color fluorite associated with scheelite, fluorite also second crystallized. I will update more details photos soon.
