Item Description
A well-placed, 2.2 x 1.4 cm cluster of opposing parallel-growth, classic, gemmy, "electric-blue", linarite crystals from the famous Grand Reef Mine of Arizona. The linarites are accented with copper oxides including rare devilline, chrysocolla and other species. The bit of bruising to the linarites is certainly only a modest detraction. This is a very attractive, highly representative and rare combination example of the species and well-known locale. Ex Bob Hauck Collection and self-collected by him in 1984. Valued at $950.
