What's Hot In Ste Marie: 2018

With the 2018 Summer Season, we once again head off to Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines in the Alsace region of Eastern France. It's here that one of the best mineral shows in Europe is held every year and we dig in deep for a view of all the great fine minerals that show up every year here.

In addition to fine minerals, we also take some time to explore the wineries of the Alsace region - a region famous for its exceptional wines.

So join Show Hosts Christophe Gobin, Eloïse Gaillou, Alain Martaud and new host Eric DeCarlo as we go in search of What's Hot In Ste.Marie!!

SPECIAL NOTE: We are releasing this film so that it is FREE to the public via YouTube. This is in reaction to the current new Coronavirus pandemic that is sweeping the world. The best advice to help head off this disease (other than washing hands, covering your coughs and not touching our faces) is self-isolation. So in this time of self-isolation, we at BlueCap Productions wanted to try and provide at least a little relief to the mineral collecting community with this free copy of this film. Please enjoy and be safe.
