Sharp cyclical twins of cerussite scattered on a matrix of galena that is amply coated by very sharp crystals of smithsonite. There are also orange yellow micro crystals on the surface that have not been identified, maybe tsumcorite (?)
A marvelous “cast” of dioptase crystals hosts a few small yellow mimetite crystals. From a find of earlier this year. There appears to be two distinct generations of dioptase in this one.
NEW!
Bright deep green dioptase crystals on matrix, sprinkled with tiny yellow mimetite crystals. Wonderful color.
NEW!
A textbook pair of gemmy dolomite rhombohedrons (largest is 3.7 cm across) ocurring as intergrown twins, on a dolomite and calcite matrix. Superb!
A beautiful pink example of a cobaltoan dolomite cast (probably after calcite) with lots of hollow cavities and sprinkled with some green duftite crystals.
A very gemmy and lustrous, bright green, doubly terminated elbaite prism sits on a larger crystal that’s associated with smaller (also terminated) crystals. Displays beautifully!
A highly unusual elbaite specimen composed of two main compound crystals made up of many pinacoidal crystals with a fibrous nature, in parallel growth. The color is a dark greenish grey and the luster is very good. As you will notice one of the main crystals grew against the matrix, creating a flat, hindered termination.
Lustrous and straited, bladed black crystals of ferberite to 5.5 cm associated with silvery arsenopyrite and muscovite crystals.
A doubly terminated ferberite crystal sits on one side of a pair of gemmy quartz crystals, both sprinkled with white to clear dolomites and with silvery mica poised on the opposite end. The rear shows additional ferberites. Very sharp small cab.
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.
