Pyromorphite (fine color and quality)

Item Description

When it comes to fine crystallized specimens of Pyromorphite, the finest contemporary green pieces are those from the famous Daoping Mine in China. The best examples of these fantastic pieces are simply as good as any other Pyromorphites from virtually any world locality in terms of size, color and quality. We have been told by a source in China that the area of the Daoping Mine that produced these pieces is finished and we may never see these superb Pyromorphites again unless a new area is opened up. This miniature sized piece features excellent quality, very sharp, lustrous, well-formed, skeletal / "hoppered" crystals of hexagonal Pyromorphite with a lovely Granny Smith apple green hue, free of matrix. An excellent three-dimensional display specimen of these now classic specimens. Valued at $1,500.
