Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent, old time example of pharmacosiderite from this historic locality!!! Let me start off by saying that this specimen has dramatic, deep blue-GREEN color in person!!! Like
scorodite, some pharmacosiderite specimens show up a drastically different color in the photos - this specimen is a deep blue-GREEN color in person, not just blue as it appears in the pictures!!!
In person the color is a characteristic and unique deep blue green unlike anything else I can think of!!! This specimen is covered with
significant, complex crystals of lustrous pharmacosiderite!!! The pharmacosiderite crystals exhibit a complexly modified cubic habit and has
marked clarity and intense color!!! This is rare, OLD time material, dating to the latter half of the 19th century!!! This specimen has much better color than the pictures show!!!
Don't miss out on this old time rarity!!!
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 JULY 7th!!!
