Item Description

A wonderful specimen features the beautiful hydrated lead copper carbonate sulfate, Caledonite in the form of medium sky-blue to rich electric blue, flattened, straited crystals of 1mm sitting in vugs and on matrix. Certainly the Caledonite crystals are the most well-known mineral from this locality. I believe a tiny bit of whitish / silver colored Leadhillite is present on the piece as well. This piece was collected by Rick Kennedy.
