Item Description
Mineral specimens from the old-time (for Wyoming, that is) iron/copper Sunrise Mine are extremely rare and are very seldom on the market. This very showy, colorful, curved vug is lined with pretty turquoise-blue and dark powder-blue quartz after azurite blades and nodular/bubbly, cream-colored quartz on a hematite/limonite matrix. Ex Mel and Grace Dyck Collection, mineral dealers who once lived in Wyoming.
