Calomel with Montroydite & Terlinguaite

Terlingua District, Brewster Co., Texas

3.6cm x 3cm x 2.42cm

Ex. Bill Pinch

Ex. Dr. F. P. D'Esopo Collection No. 1579


Description/Interesting Notes:

A rare example of calomel, montroydite, and terlinguaite from Texas!!! This specimen hosts numerous submillimeter crystals of reddish montroydite in association with greenish terlinguaite and calomel!!! Let me start by saying that the pictures don't even come close to doing this specimen justice!!! Upon close examination with a loupe or scope this specimen hosts some impressive examples of montroydite and terlinguaite!!! There is a tiny amount of native mercury as well!!! This specimen retains old labels from both Bill Pinch and Dr. F.P. D'Esopo as well!!! Dr. D'Esopo was a friend and protege of Bill Pinch (from whom he acquired many of his specimens) and under his tutelage amassed a truly significant species collection of impressive breadth and quality!!! 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!!!
