Proustite (Asselborn Coll.)

Item Description

Lustrous and gemmy, ruby-red proustite microcrystals comprise this entire thumbnail on this showy and excellent specimen from recent finds at the Imiter Mine of Morocco. The crystals are in excellent condition and the bruised areas are noted, but are certainly a modest detraction. This is very fine and super rich representation of the species and locality of this sought-after silver sulfosalt. rare in such rich specimens from this locale. Ex Dr. Eric Asselborn Collection. Valued $300-400.
