Item Description

Sculptural veins and pods of massive native silver course through calcite and breccia fragments of the diabase host rock on this large and striking unpolished slab of rich ore from the famous mines at Cobalt. Excellent material from the Art Soregaroli Collection, who worked there and field collected much of these in his mine analysis work. 130 grams mass, so it is big and heavy!
