Item Description
A really aesthetic and rich gold on quartz thumbnail from the original "16 to 1 Mine". Clusters and veinlets of bright hackly, microcystalline strikingly wrap themselves around the shard of milky quartz. The large crestal cluster is partially hoppered, for even more pazzazz. Every turn presents a different view to this very fine cutie, which was mined in the early 1990s. Rarely available from this old locality
