Pyromorphite var. Arsenian (mid-1990s)

Item Description

A sculptural, interesting and excellent pyromorphite miniature from the famous 1990s finds at the Bunker Hill Mine. The aesthetically intergrown stout prisms, many having striking hoppered terminations, have a secondary overgrowth of more matte finish, variable brown, nubby pyromorphite on the crystal faces. The back side shows that the single and compound crystals, to 2.0 cm, are a juicy, lustrous honey-brown. A very artistic, pristine and fine example of this varietal from this renowned locale. valued $750
