American Mineralogist Crystal Structure Database (RRUFF)
- US scientific databases of minerals containing mainly data about Raman spectra, X-ray and structure data and chemical composition of minerals. http://rruff.geo.arizona.edu/rruff/

ATHENA MINERALOGY
- very well Swiss database of minerals of worker of Department of Mineralogy in the Genéve containing main data about minerals (name, crystallochemical formula, crystal system, Strunz classification, reference and type locality). This database is fine mainly for searching of minerals according to mineral name, chemical composition or type locality. http://athena.unige.ch/athena/mineral/search.html#

BRGM ATLAS MINÉRALOGIQUE
- very well mineralogical database of prominent French geological institute (BRGM - Bureau de recherches géologiques et minières) made in form of atlas with colour photos of minerals (in transmitted also in reflected light, in 1 nicol also cross-nicols) with lot of mainly basic informations about minerals. This database is appropriate for students of mineralogy as well as geologists in practice which using polarization microscope. Database is only in French language. http://webmineral.brgm.fr:8003/mineraux/Main.htmlSpä na začiatok stránky
