large orange Creedite (ex Lemanski Collection)

Item Description

Numerous intergrown balls of gemmy burnt-orange to near colorless creedite crystals form a sculptural and very colorful 3-dimensional 360-degree specimen. The crystals reach 1.7 cm on this impressive piece. Complete all-around and in great shape, with few broken crystals and modest attachment points, considering the crystal density. Certainly acceptable in the context of this remarkable piece. Creedite is an uncommon complex aluminium salt. This locality may be extinct, as we have heard that the tunnel collapsed. A very fine large example from the find that was the largest find for the species, now nearly 15 years ago. It is big, colorful, and happens to also be a superb rare species in display form and size!
