Description/Interesting Notes:
A classic, old time example of aragonite from this historic locality!!! This specimen consists of a group of highly .
complex aragonite crystals!!! The crystals have lustrous, complexly etched prism faces and marked translucence!!! The crystals are complete and undamaged!!! When
viewed down the c-axis, one can see that the crystals look almost like snow-flakes or complexly twinned cerussite crystals!!! This complex
form continues down the length of the crystals and you can see the resulting complex features on the prism faces!!! This specimen is simply incredible to
examine in person!!! This specimen retains a very old label (we are still researching it, if and when we have additional info I will post it) as well!!! The
pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
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 DECEMBER 23rd!!!
