Description/Interesting Notes:
An old time example of brucite from this famous historic locale!!! This specimen hosts a rich showing of platy, translucent
crystals of brucite!!! There are significant, thick, and chunky crystals of brucite with marked translucence and bright luster!!!
In addition, there are numerous crystals of what appear to be adularia-like albite scattered throughout the brucite crystals!!! These
crystals are present as sharp, modified rhombs with bright luster and translucent white color (you can see some close-ups in the pics)!!!
This specimen retains several old labels including labels from the John H. Marshall collection!!! Way better than the pics show!!!
OLD material!!!
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 AUGUST 30th!!!
