Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic, old time example of this rare species from the type locale!!! This specimen hosts a rich showing of well-crystallized cronstedtite
on a matrix of massive pyrite in association with botryoidal crystals of siderite!!! The cronstedtite is present as darkly colored, lustrous, intergrown
groups of crystals!!! There is more cronstedtite present than can be seen in the pics as well!!! The siderite crystals are present
as brown, translucent, botryoidal crystals!!! Rare old time material!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! This specimen is from the collection of
Tony Nikischer!!! We just acquired the 6000+ specimen PERSONAL collection of Tony Nikischer and there are going to be
some very exciting minerals to come in the upcoming days and weeks!!!
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 FEBRUARY 14th!!!
