Item Description
The only Cinnabar from the Relief Canyon gold mine in Nevada. The piece comes from the collection of Harold Urish, and if it wasn't for the label, I would have a hard time identifying it. The largest Cinnabar group measures 1.4 cm across. It has the typical reddish metallic appearance - similar to Proustite - that one would expect from Cinnabar. If you're a Nevada mineral collector don't miss out on this hard to find locality specimen.
