Item Description

A 5.3 cm, "ball" of splendent, rubyjack sphalerite crystals is very aesthetically attached to the end of a CABINET sliver of matrix. The silicified limestone matrix is covered with sparkly drusy quartz and small calcite rhombs. This is an outstanding and pristine sphalerite ball from the famous and now-closed Elmwood Mine. This fine piece displays well from several angles, as you can see. Get a really good one, while you can. Ex Consie Prince Collection.
