Arsentian Vanadinite (Endlichite) on Wulfenite (Dr. B. Phillips Coll.)

Item Description

Sparkly micrcrystalline arsentian vanadinite (endlichite) richly covers a solid boxwork crust of densely intergrown wulfenite crystals from the famous Erupcion Mine at Los Lamentos. A wulfie on one corner is 3.5 cm, quite large. The crystals on the undulating side are larger and less dense, that those on the flat back, forming an interesting contrast. In outstanding shape, considering the crystal density, with only a few broken crystals, mostly on the periphery. Classic and excellent combination material from the Dr. Barratt Phillips Collection.
