Item Description
Mineral specimens from this obscure, small, former copper-silver-gold mine in the Helvetia District are extremely rare and are seldom on the market. This is a very aesthetic, colorful, lightweight, sponge-like, vuggy, boxwork, crust of multi-hued, bubby, botryoidal, malachite nicely accented with royal-blue, azurite botryoids. Excellent and rare combination material, self-collected by Harold Urish # 669 in 1992.
