Item Description

Pyromorphite from the Morning Mine, near the very famous Bunker Hill Mine, is VERY rare and is rarely on the market. This is a really nifty pastel lime-green thumbnail of stair-stepped, parallel-growth and strikingly hoppered pyromorphite prisms. I like the way the largest crystals are at the top of the piece. This super cutie is complete all-around and is nearly pristine and must date from the 1960s or earlier. Ex Jaime Bird Collection and comes with a label. A must for the species or locality collector.
