Doubly terminated, bi-colored elbaite prisms in parallel growth with lepidolite crystals and smaller elbaites attached. Super!
A very gemmy, slightly smoky quartz crystal in parallel growth with equally gemmy prisms of green elbaite penetrating the quartz in all directions. Choice!
Several rows of hexagonal lavender crystals of fluorapatite to 2.5 cm on a matrix of tan siderite crystals. The specimen has wonderful aesthetics, color, contrast and luster! A winner!!!!
Very gemmy and lustrous intergrown sky blue crystals of fluorite on matrix with minor quartz. A few dings on the periphery. * The color is bluer than the photos show.
A magnificent, frosted mint green bipyramidal octahedron of fluorite on a matrix of white quartz (it looks as there is a sharp phantom within the fluorite caused by the triangular quartz matrix also) with smaller cubes at the base. Competition quality fluorite!
Transparent pastel green cubes of fluorite are nestled in a nest of clear stubby quartz crystals. No attachment points.
A stunning and unusual fluorite consisting of an elongated (etched?) crystal that ends in a cube termination and is associated with cubed faces along the side of the crystal and sits on sphalerite crystals with micro quartz and galena crystals. One of the neatest pieces I’ve seen out of this locale!. Originally in the collection of Leonard Himes who purchased it from Ocus Stanley in the early 70’s and sold it to D. Nelson in 2002.
A pair of very gemmy and lustrous, light blue green cubes of fluorite on a matrix of silvery muscovite. The crystal on the left of the photo is complete al the way around. The one on the right has a cleave at the rear that probably ocurred during extraction. The top of the piece also has a group of silvery, slightly irridescent crystals of arsenopyrite at the tip. No damage and spectacular!
Bright green, bipyramidal octahedrons of fluorite sprinkled with sugary white micro quartz crystals are intermixed with a clear, tabular calcite crystal. The specimen has no damage and displays superbly!
