Item Description

Brilliant, silver-metallic, moly plates cover one edge of the lustrous, subhedral, rust-brown matrix on this excellent and showy specimen from this renowned locale. The large cluster is 5.5 cm across and the luster is just fabulous. A brilliant specimen in appearance, overall. About as good as it gets from this famous locale in a large size, they are very hard to find nowadays and generally came out (i am told) prior to the 1970s. Valued $900-1200
