Item Description

Perfect fan of lustrous, white Hemimorphite crystals from the famous Santa Eulalia Mining District, Chihuahua, Mexico. The highly translucent Hemimorphite crystals (once known as Calamine long ago) have sharp, chisel-like terminations that have a hint of gemminess to them, and the overall shape and aesthetics are excellent. Formerly owned by Anthony Schumacher (Larry Conklins uncle) and A. Montgomery. From the large worldwide collection of historical minerals, of George Elling of New Jersey. A stunning miniature!
