Description/Interesting Notes:
A rare, old time example of cerussite after anglesite from Mexico!!! This specimen consists of a darkly colored psilomelane matrix
that hosts a blocky pair of cerussite pseudomorphs after anglesite in association with a small but showy complex network of water-clear
selenite crystals!!! The cerussite pseudomorphs have a patchwork-like, velvety luster and are slightly translucent in areas!!! In addition
to these wonderful pseudomorphs, the selenite
crystals are present as a continuous
and pristine complex lattice-work that is amazing under close inspection!!! This specimen retains an old label from the Lininger collection as well!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS
WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY OCTOBER 14th!!!
