Description/Interesting Notes:
An outstanding, old time example of petzite from this seldom referenced Colorado locality!! This specimen consists of a quartz matrix that hosts
a rich showing of complex, silvery crystals of petzite!!! Upon close inspection, it can be seen that the petzite is actually
very well crystallized and in terrific condition!!! Upon close examination with a loupe or scope, one
can see that many of the crystals and clusters are actually complete!!! The highly complex features and curious, rounded forms are quite fascinating under close study!!!
This old time specimen retains a partial A.E. Foote label on the reverse and retains an old label and affixed catalogue label from the A.E. Seaman Mineral
Museum!!! 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!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY JUNE 16th!!!
