Pyromorphite (arsenian) ex. Urish Coll.

Item Description

Intensely sparkling crystals of the arsneian variety of pyromorphite, colored orange due to some arsenic content. These were found in the mid 1990s here, but have not been seen since. In fact, the mine is a Superfund site, closed to collecting and from which nothing has come since the finds which produced this piece. This one is particularly sparkly!
