Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic, old time example of conichalcite from Utah!!! This specimen hosts a paricularly handsome showing of bright green conichalcite crystals on
matrix!!! The conichalcite crystals have intense green color with glassy luster and marked translucence!!! The crystals are present as radiating groups of
crystals!!! Many of the conichalcite sprays are coated with submillimeter, water-clear quartz crystal points, which give them added sparkle!!! A number of the
conichalcite crystal groups have centers of an unidentified turquoise colored mineral as well!!! This specimen is absolutely gorgeous in person!!! Upon
close examination the conichalcite crystals can be seen to be very well crystallized as well!!! This specimen retains an old label from the A.E. Seaman Mineral
Museum with George Robbe (1884-1963) Collection notation!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY DECEMBER 16th!!!
