Galena with Dolomite (ex Carmichael Collection)

Item Description

A classic association specimen from Leadville hosting sharp, lustrous, metallic, silvery cuboctahedral crystals of Galena with pearly off-white rhombs of Dolomite plus minor black Sphalerite on massive sulfide on matrix. The largest Galena measures 1.1 cm on edge. A great example of this hard to find material from a classic Colorado locality. One of the very few pieces of this sought after material that I have offered lately. Ex Eugene Carmichael collection. Valued at $850 in today's market for quality, aesthetics and size.
