Item Description

Sharp, lustrous, translucent, golden colored, well-formed Cerussite crystals sit amongst white to iron-stained reddish-orange bladed Barite. The piece is in good shape on the display side, and the Cerussite crystals are somewhat 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 crystal specimen of this classic and distinctive material from Mibladen.
