Item Description

A hard to find example of Pyromorphite from the famous Black Pine Mine in Montana. The piece hosts several sharp, lustrous, prismatic, reddish-brown crystals of Pyromorphite on a single white Quartz crystal. The largest Pyromorphite measures about 5 mm. If you're a Pyromorphite collector, this is a great opportunity to add an obscure locality specimen to your collection. One of the very few pieces of the material that I have seen, especially on Quartz crystal matrix.
