This week's auction is filled with plenty of new discoveries we picked up over the last few months along with rarities, unusual pieces, gem crystals, classics and display specimens. You'll even find a few fossils, carving and gemstones mixed in every now and then. Look for pieces mixed in from various collections we've obtained including Willard Wulff, Kay Robertson, Francesco Bedogné, and Paul Zerfass, along with dealers' inventories. Look here for the not so typical mineral specimens along with plenty of your favorites. We don't just offer the "standard 20 species", but an eclectic mix of specimens that appeal to everybody! Enjoy!
Some of the highlights from this week's include:
1. Doubly-terminated GEMMY pink and green TOURMALINE from the Himalaya Mine in California
2. A fine quality, gemmy sapphire-blue color crystal of AFGHANITE aesthetically sitting on matrix
3. Classic "rose" of rich blue AZURITE from the famous Czar Mine in Bisbee, Arizona
4. A GEM quality compressed purple cubic crystal of FLUORITE from the Llamas Quarry in Spain
5. Lovely semi-spherical green PREHNITE sitting on QUARTZ from the Hongquizhen Quarry, China
6. Beautiful sharp cuboctahedral light green color FLUORITE crystals on SPHALERITE from Naica, Mexico
7. A very cool, historic specimen of SYNTHETIC QUARTZ from Motorola Laboratories
