Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic example of this rare selenide from the type locale in Bolivia!!! This specimen hosts a rich showing of dark, metallic penroseite in
association with some reddish-brown ahlfeldite!!! The penrosite shows brilliant cleavage faces, some of which are arranaged in
radiating groups!!! Upon close inspection with a loupe or scope one can see minute, subhedral crystals of
reddish brown ahlfeldite scattered about the specimen as well!!! Simply a fantastic example of this rare species!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! This specimen is from the collection of
Tony Nikischer!!! We just acquired the 6000+ specimen PERSONAL collection of Tony Nikischer and there are going to be some
very exciting minerals to come in the upcoming days and weeks!!!
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 APRIL 4th!!!
