A rare example of hinsdalite from Butte!!! This specimen consists of a combination of enargite, pyrite, and quartz that hosts
numerous crystals are the rare lead aluminum phosphate!!! There are isolated crystals of hinsdalite scattered amongst quartz points
in a small vug on one side of the specimen and then a dense group of crystals on the other!!! A very rare find for Butte indeed!!! This specimen
is from the collection of well-known Butte collector and scholar Bob Jenkins and retains his original label!!!
