Chlorargyrite Broken Hill, Yancowinna Co., New South Wales, Australia 7.24cm x 6.2cm x 2.65cm Ex. University of Delaware

Description/Interesting Notes: A fantastic, old time example of chlorargyrite from Broken Hill!!! This specimen hosts numerous, sharply formed, complex crystals of chlorargyrite on a curious matrix of darkly colored, botryoidal material (goethite?) that has been subsequently coated by a thin layer of massive gray chlorargyrite!!! Upon close inspection one can see that many of the botryoidal "stalks" are actually hollow, pseudomorphic casts of an unknown species (some of the sharpest examples indicate the underlying species were prismatic hexagonal crystals)!!! Interestingly, the chlorargyrite crystals are mainly perched atop these stalks and appear to have come out of the hollow casts!!! Simply a fantastic example of this rare silver bearing species with a lot going on upon close inspection!!! There are some complex, compressed cerussite crystals present on the reverse 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!!!
