Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic, old time example of these rare gold and silver bearing tellurides from Colorado!!!
This specimen hosts crystals, grains, and masses of gold and silver tellurides scattered throughout the matrix!!! There
is an elongated, brilliantly metallic crystal of sylvanite embedded in the quartz matrix that measures over 2cm!!! Upon
close inspection one can see that there are areas of krennerite and sylvanite scattered all about the specimen, as well as other
possible tellurides as well!!! Specimens from this locale are quite scarce indeed!!!
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 MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY FEBRUARY 21st!!!
