Native Silver with Cerussite Bunker Hill Mine, Bunker Hill Properties, Kellogg, Coeur d'Alene District, Shoshone Co., Idaho 5.2cm x 4cm x 2.13cm Ex. Robert D. Roots (1891-1971) Ex. Robert E. Jenkins II Collection No. 5155

Description/Interesting Notes: A terrific, old time example of native silver with cerussite from Idaho!!! This specimen consists of a cluster of lustrous cerussite crystals that hosts a rich grouping of fine, dendritic crystals of native silver perched among them!!! The cerussite crystals have glassy luster and marked translucence!!! The dark patina of the native silver crystals stands out in sharp contrast to the translucent white cerussite crystals!!! The native silver ranges from silvery metallic in color to dark gray (due to microcrystalline acanthite) and is also partially included in some of the cerussite crystals as well!!! This specimen retains an old label from Robert D. Roots as well as a label from the personal collection of Bob Jenkins!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
