Item Description

A very hard to find Cerussite specimen from the famous Glove Mine in Arizona. This mine is best known for its unique Wulfenite specimens, and in my experience, Cerussite is really scarce. This piece features a few sharp, lustrous, gemmy, slightly "smoky" Cerussite crystals measuring up to 6 mm which are sitting on a heavy mound of Galena. From the collection of Harold Urish, whose label on the base of the box states that he self-collected the piece on April 6, 2002.
