Item Description

A RARE, old-time specimen from the famous but small mine here, and the Mullane Collection. STRIKING, lustrous, rust-red bipyramidal wulfenite crystals to 7 mm richly and aesthetically cover both sides of the sturdy, 3-dimensional, vuggy, goethite matrix. Showingly, the backside features colorless calcite(?) crystals! This EXCELLENT piece is either from 1960s or close to it. VERY SELDOM on the market! A must for the locality or species collector.
