Description/Interesting Notes:
A terrific, old time example of boleite from Mexico!!! This specimen consists of a pair of
deep royal blue crystals of boleite on matrix!!! Boleite crystals are most often seen
as isolated crystals, with matrix specimens being quite scarce!!! This is OLD time material that
dates to the late 1800's or early 1900's!!! The crystals exhibit characteristic cubic form with
marked luster and striking deep royal blue color!!! The crystals are prominently perched on matrix and
measure up to 4mm!!! This specimen has an old affixed catalogue number from the collection of J.T. Reeder (1857-1937) as
well as a corresponding catalogue number from the A.E. Seaman Mineral Museum!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
