Item Description

The Sara Alicia Mine is best known for its beautiful crystallized Erythrites. These specimens show beautiful fuschia color crytals that show excellent crystallized upon magnification. This piece is loaded with micro crystals, and we've photographed them with a Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens to better illustrate their quality. These are some of the best quality crystals of Erythrite outside of Morocco. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#6472). Kay is a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see the article in the March-April, 2007 Mineralogical Record and the 50+ page article in the German Magazine "Mineralien Welt" November-December 2017).
