Description/Interesting Notes:
An old time example of bismuth and silver from Canada!!! This specimen hosts a group of highly complex crystals
of native bismuth perched amoung lustrous quartz points on a native bismuth-rich matrix!!! The native bismuth crystals
have a unique, iridescent patina and exhibit some highly complex forms!!! Upon close inspection with a loupe or scope, one can
see a few tiny wires of native silver tucked among the native bisumth crystals!!! One can see that the matrix is densely populated
with native bismuth crystals as well!!! A unique, old time
specimen from the locality!!!! This specimen retains an old handwritten label from the Dr. Egee Collection 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 MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 22nd!!!
