Item Description
Sharp, lightly iridescent, peacock-blue, golden-bronze and magenta chalcocite crystals form an excellent two-sided, thumbnail specimen from the famous mid-1990s finds at the Flambeau Mine of Wisconsin. The large crystal is 1.8 cm and the piece has a nice sculptural aspect to it. Highly representative material from this famous locale, which is now extinct. The exact mine location is the Lucky Friday Pocket. Ex Wes Parker Collection. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON. valued $300
