Item Description

A very rare locality piece for the species, this is a thick, sturdy, surprisingly robust cluster of elongated millerite crystals: These came out of geodes in the Iowa area famous for geodes, and tend to be from the 1950s and 1960s, although some had been found (rarely) more recently. From the award-winning thumbnail collection of Sharon and William Panczner, author of the book Minerals Of Mexico, and last seen and exhibited in the 1960s and recently rediscovered.
