We take immense pride in our rich heritage and unparalleled expertise in the mineral trade, a journey that spans over 50 years. Our story begins with our late grandfather, Arifullah, a distinguished dealer who devoted his life to this captivating field. He was the main supplier of the esteemed Herb Obodda minerals, laying the foundation for a legacy of excellence.
In the world of fine minerals, certain names resonate with a legacy of quality, passion, and visionary leadership. At the very top of that list is Daniel Trinchillo, the CEO and Founder of Fine Minerals International. Recently, I had the distinct honour of participating in a business and mentor meeting with Daniel—an experience that can only be described as a "dream come true" and a pivotal moment for the future of our enterprise.
One glance at this vibrant green Emerald, and you’ll be captivated by its exceptional luster and clarity. Mined from the legendary Panjshir Valley, this specimen is a true marvel of nature.
I’ve acquired minerals from every continent, but Fine Quality Minerals’ Afghan emeralds are in a league of their own. The 12.5ct specimen I purchased in 2019 has already doubled in value!
As a hedge fund manager, I diversify into tangible assets. FQM’s rare brookites and rutiles have outperformed my gold holdings 3-to-1 since 2020. Their authentication process is Wall Street-grade.
My father bought from Fine Quality Minerals in 1983. Today, I’m still a client—because their morganites still arrive wrapped in the same hand-signed certificates.
After 20 years at Sotheby’s gems department, I can confirm: FQM’s Tanzanite lot #117 would’ve fetched 30% more at auction. Their prices are a steal for the quality.
