Description/Interesting Notes:
A terrific example of this rare silver-bearing species from Peru!!! This specimen consists of a pair of divergent pyrargyrite crystals that
have been completely replaced by a dense network of intergrown miargyrite crystals with a few scattered pyargyrite crystals in association!!!
The miargyrite pseudomorphs actually have significant hollow cavities within them that, upon close inspection, are
lined with sharp, lustrous crystals of miargyrite!!! One of the pseudomorphs hosts a significant area of highly
ordered miargyrite crystals that form a sharply defined, lustrous crystal face that is quite impressive upon close inspection with a loupe or scope!!!
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!!!
