Item Description

A rarely seen specimen of the famous Parisite-(Ce) crystals from the Snowbird Mine in Montana. This piece features rather large crystals, free of matrix of a golden-brown hue with pseudohexagonal form, free of matrix. These pieces came out circa 1955, and are VERY difficult to find on the market, especially in crystal this size. While the piece is not perfect, it's still in very good condition for the material, and to have a nearly 2-inch group is certainly a big deal for the material. From the collection of Steve Pullman.
