Cerussite (''snowflake'') (RARE locality!)

Item Description

Here we have a beautiful, fine quality and very rarely seen example of reticulated twinned Cerussite (forming a beautiful "snowflake"-shaped group) from the lesser known S and O claims (Amethyst Hill), near Wickenburg, Arizona. The piece dates back to the 1970s-1980s era of mining, and is the FIRST one we've ever had to offer in the auctions. The piece has a characteristic deep smoky reddish-brown hue, and there are multiple layer are "arms" of crystallization, giving the piece depth. I can see a few minor imperfections around the periphery, but the piece is largely complete all around, on the front and back and looks beautiful in person. If you collect Arizona minerals, this is something that you RARELY see offered on the market, and if you're a fan of Cerussite, lead minerals or secondary ore specimens, this is a great opportunity to pick up something that I'm sure most of you don't have in your collections. Valued $1,500.
