Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic, old time example of tyrolite from Utah!!! This specimen hosts a rich distribution of intensely colored tyrolite crystals in association with
azurite!!! There are several dense clusters of almost pearlesent tyrolite crystals and individual crystals to over 3mm!!! Although they are
difficult to appreciate in the pics, the azurite crystals are actually highly lustrous and intensely colorful tiny blades!!! This old time specimen is quite
striking in person!!! This specimen retains old labels from the collection of mineralogist W.F. Hillebrand (and son of the famed botanist) and
and the U.S. National Museum (Smithsonian Institute)!!! The specimen is in magnificent condition and displays fantastically!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
