Item Description

Galena specimens are far less common from this Viburnum Trend mine compared to the nearby Sweetwater Mine. That being said, this is a sculptural elongated cluster of splendent, metallic-gray crystals. It has a definite biomorphic, fish look. All the crystals have the "melted look", except for the cube at the "tail". Facinating, uncommon and unusual, two-sided galena from this locale and the George Feist Collection # 2681a.
