Item Description

A sharp, lustrous, translucent, "smoky" colored, well-formed Cerussite crystal group measuring 1.5 cm on Barite makes for a nice small cabinet sized display specimen. The piece is in good shape on the display side, and the crystals are actually rather gemmy in areas. This locality is well known for its Vanadinite specimens, but has produced some very attractive Cerussites over the years. A good sized matrix specimen of this classic and distinctive material from Mibladen.
