Calaverite with Tellurium

John Jay Mine, Jamestown District, Boulder Co., Colorado

6.3cm x 4.27cm x 2.4cm

Ex. A. E. Seaman Mineral Museum #DM-3332


Description/Interesting Notes:

A terrific, old time example of calaverite with native tellurium from Colorado!!! While old time examples of telluride species from Cripple Creek are well-known to collectors, examples of the telluride species from Jamestown are quite scarce by comparison!!! This specimen hosts numerous thin, prismatic crystals of silvery native tellurium included within the matrix in association scattered grains of calaverite and a significant mass of calaverite on one side of the specimen (located near the DM-3332 catalogue number)!!! In addition to the calaverite and native tellurium, there are dense networks of curious, spheroidal groups of pyrite crystals that also host minute grains of calaverite as well!!! This specimen is from the A.E. Seaman Mineral Museum and retains an old label as well!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
