Item Description

A striking, upright, divergent cluster of sharp, blue-green pseudomorphs of Chrysocolla after Gypsum var. Selenite crystals are the centerpiece of this specimen. Old-time material, seldom seen today. This great pseudomorph from the Ray Mine probably originated from the 2280 Level. Old classics, now rarely seen for sale. Often they are described as alternate replacements of gypsum or of azurite, depending on the crystal shape. From the award-winning thumbnail collection of Sharon and William Panczner, author of the book Minerals Of Mexico, and last seen and exhibited in the 1960s and recently rediscovered.
