Item Description
A RARE and very showy quartz pseudomorph from this obscure San Juan County locale. Four sharply terminated, lustrous, milky quartz crystals aesthetically surround a field of small snow-white quartz points, that have pseudomorphed tabular barite blades? Some of the pseudos are partially hollow on the bottom. Striking, seldom available and desirable Colorado material from the Art Soregaroli Collection. Art was the Co-Editor of the large format, 2010, 544 page, Peru - Paradise of Minerals book. A MUST for the locality or species collector.
