Descloizite ps. Vanadinite (unusual!) ex. McGill Collection

Item Description

An unusual, very showy miniature of scintillating, brown Descloizite microcrystals pseudomorphing curved, elongated Vanadinite crystals. Interestingly, each side presents differently. The main side shows as a dense nest of the lustrous, prismatic Vanadanites pseudomorphing into the microcrystalline Descloizite, while the reverse side is a dense growth of fine, deep brown Descoloizite. Both sides are attractive and interesting. This unique-looking, two-sided pseudo is from the less well-known Aurora Mine in Chihuahua, Mexico. Rare material! ex. Dr. Wouter van Tichelen pseudomorph collection.
