Description/Interesting Notes:
A rare example of danalite from Idaho!!! This specimen hosts a complex single crystal of
dark red danalite on matrix in association with some smoky quartz crystals!!! Danalite is rather rare in and of itself, however
I have never seen such an example from Idaho!!! The danalite crystal exhibits complexly etched features but is complete and undamaged!!!
The smoky quartz crystals seem to exhibit some highly complex features as well!!!
This specimen came out of an old cache of specimens that came from the AMNH to a prominent New York area dealer years ago and retains a
catalogued perky box as well!!! Rare material!!!
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!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY MAY 24th!!!
