Erythrite (rare) (ex Josef Vajdak)

Item Description

A very hard to find specimen of a well known species. Everybody knows that good Erythrites are found in Morocco, but pieces from the Czech Republic are almost impossible to find. This piece features fuchsia-pink colored groups of Erythrite on matrix from this famous silver / cobalt / nickel producing locality at Jachymov. This is one of only a handful of pieces of this species that we've seen, and comes with a classic label from Czech mineral specialist, Josef Vajdak / Pequa Rare Minerals, which immediately increases the value.
