Item Description
Glowing orange botryoidal (rounded) growths of pyromorphite here make it immediately identifiable as one of the amazing orange pyros from the early 1990s at the Bunker Hill mine. The hot orange color is due to trace amounts of arsenic, and these are therefore called Arsenian Pyromorphite among most collectors, though it is not actually a real species, just a varietal. This beautiful miniature is from the Kay Robertson collection, which we handled some years ago.
