Rosasite with Hemimorphite (ex Gary Weaver Collection)

Item Description

A beautifully colored specimen of blue-green colored Rosasite on silvery colored Hemimorphite from the famous 79 Mine in Arizona. The aesthetics, arrangement and overall beauty make it a very worthwhile specimen from this well known locality. Very attractive and hard to find these days on the market. From the collection of Gary Weaver (1944-2019), an electrical engineer who worked for Hughes Aircraft in California. After retiring to Prescott, Arizona in the early 2000s, Gary rekindled his childhood love of minerals, amassing a collection of roughly 2000 specimens, focusing on localities in which he and his wife had lived or visited (Mexico, Peru and the western / southwestern United States).
