Description/Interesting Notes:
A marvelous example of this intensely colored species from Morocco!!! This specimen hosts a stunning group of sharp, prismatic
erythryite crystals dramatically perched on matrix!!! the pics hardly do it justice!!!
Wolfgang Pohl worked in the mining industry in Namibia in the 70s and 80s and was a prolific
collector and dealer during and after this time!!! He would make trips back and forth to his
native Germany trading specimens he had acquired in Africa for worldwide specimens!!! Pohl was
rather meticulous with his labeling and record keeping with most of the specimens in the collection
having catalogue numbers, label with info on locale, source/dealer info, acquisition date, and any
other relevant notes!!! However, the most interesting feature is that most of the labels also had a
small sketch of the specimen on the reverse side as well!!! I will be listing many exciting specimens
from this collection, in addition to the usual and far ranging array of specimens, in the upcoming weeks -
so don't miss out!!!
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 JULY 17th!!!
