Item Description
Large, lustrous and translucent, well-formed, light amber colemanite crystals up to 6.0 cm across from an extinct California locality, the Thompson Mine. Some of the faces show interior zoning from water-clear to translucent. This is a fine, older example of this uncommon borate and LOOKS MUCH BETTER IN PERSON. All of the display faces are pristine. Ex Mullane Collection. White fluorescence.
