Description/Interesting Notes:
A classic, old time example of gem silica from this famous Arizona locality!!! This specimen consists of a very showy mass of gem silica that has been
expertly polished to show off its striking aesthetics!!! This specimen is thick, dense, and rich!!! This specimen came out of an old collection and hosts several rich veins of deep turquoise blue
gem silica with bright red accents of cuprite as well as other various colors and patterns of other associated species!!! The cuprite shows rich red coloration as well as
some slightly metallic looking masses where it is more solidly crystalline!!! The turquoise gem silica has a slight, glowing translucence on edge as well!!! This is
absolutely CHOICE old time material!!! These classic old timers are quite valuable and difficult to come by today!!! Absolutely gorgeous in person!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
