Item Description
A Mt. Antero "2-fer": a gemmy, terminated crystal of aquamarine, and a silky crystal of phenacite sitting atop a cluster of smoky quartz crystals. Both are quite nice examples for this locality, and old US classic. Any of you who have collected on top of the 14,000-foot mountain know how challenging it is to collect and actually bring back specimens worth keeping from there. .. Sizes: 4.1 x 0.9 x 0.8 cm (aqua), 3.4 x 1.8 x 1.8 cm (phenacite)
