Hank's Fascinating Rock Collection

Help Hank complete his collection of rocks minerals.

After having been shot by the cartel, Hank is recovering at home. Helped by the sweet and understanding Marie.

From his bed, he is bidding on rocks minerals to complete his collection, which is tricky: with the health care and physical therapy bills, he cannot go over his budget.

Help him get them all without spending more than he can afford, by clicking on a rock mineral to purchase as many as he can within the allocated allowance.

  • Sure. Let's go see it.
  • Oh, hey, let me.
  • Hey, it's all right. I got it. Come on, guys, it's down the hall here.

  • Well, that's the manganese part, okay? It… It oxidizes, you know, like rust.
  • Exactly. Manganese can have an oxidation state of between -3 and +7, which takes it through a range of colors… Purple, green, blue. But its most stable state is +2, which is usually pale pink. So…
