The only area I could add my expertise is on the mineral that is said to have been recognised in the VMS. That is boleite, a blue lead-copper-silver salt: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.

Questions about that:
- which folio should contain this mineral?
- how could a mineral that has been found first in Mexico late 19th century appear in a pre-Columbian era (if that's true) manuscript?

Just to be clear. There is no boleite being found in the materials analysis of the Voynich manuscript. If you are talking about the speculations about what the drawing of a blue cube (fol 102v2 per JD) could represent - there are other proposals for that cube (all of them just as speculative as boleite). In the future, try to avoid representing speculations as fact.
