摘要

Brian Charles Shelton, a well-known Australian mineral dealer during the 1970's and 1980's, died in hospital in the Victorian town of KooWeeRup on July 21, 2005. Born in the nearby town of Pakenham on November 18, 1928, Brian lived in the area all his life. He left school at an early age and started work on the family farm, but soon commenced a truck-driving business serving the agriculture industry. What triggered his interest in minerals is not known, but they became a powerful motivator for much of bis life. He began buying and selling quality specimens in the early 1970's, taking advantage of the private mineral-collecting boom hitting Australia at the time. He was soon able to build a fine collection, much of which he sold to the then National Museum of Victoria in 1974.
