Item Description
Two generations of scintillating hexagonal vanadinite prisms cover this beautiful, excellent and rich hand-sized specimen from the 1995 find at this noted locale. Gorgeous, larger, cherry-red barrels to about 3 mm are richly scattered about on the earlier blanket of smaller, brownish-red prisms on the calcite-rich matrix. This is a very substantial and fine, larger specimen from this locale, nearly pristine with only trivial brusing and periphery wear. Very seldom available in this size and quality. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection and valued at $900-1200
