Item Description

A very hard to find Erythrite specimen from this lesser known Copper Cobalt Nickel producing mine in West-Central Nevada. This is the first of this material that I've had to offer, and as far as I can tell, they are RARE on the market. Obviously not the same quality of Morocco, but any Erythrite from the United States is noteworthy in my mind. From the collection of Harold Urish. Don't miss out on this one if you're a Nevada mineral collector, or if you collect hard to find secondary ore minerals from the Western U.S. I have photographed the crystals under the microscope to show their quality.
