Description/Interesting Notes:
A large and impressive, decorator sized example of hemimorphite from Sterling Hill!!! This specimen hosts a broad, vuggy area that is
completely covered in sharp, lustrous, translucent crystals of hemimorphite!!! This specimen is a museum-sized, old time
classic that retains an old affixed catalogue number and old Hugh Ford label!!! This specimen is sparkly and showy!!! The individual translucent
crystals are sharp and lustrous!!! These characteristic Sterling Hill hemimorphite specimens were once called "maggot ore" due to the appearance some
radiating sprays of crystals can exhibit!!! The pics don't even come close to doing this huge, old time classic 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 MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY OCTOBER 13th!!!
