Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent example of smithsonite and aurichalcite from this classic locality!!! This specimen hosts an impressive 1.25cm single
crystal of smithsonite promintently perched atop
a matrix covered with
intensely colored, finely crystallized aurichalcite!!! The smithsonite crystal is a highly complex, double terminated single crystal that has glowing translucence and
a characteristic lustrous, silky sheen!!! The aurichalcite has choice color that is quite striking in person and, upon close examination, can be seen to be particularly well
crystallized and pristine!!! There are several smaller smithsonite crystals scattered amongst the aurichalcite as well!!!
This specimen is undamaged, complete, and pristine all around!!! This specimen displays fantastically in person!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
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 OCTOBER 7th!!!
