Item Description

An outstanding and very rich combination ore specimen from this historic mining area. Silver has pseudomorphed a myriad of fabulous sharp sculptural sprays and dendritic clusters of dyscrasite. The matrix is native arsenic resting on a thin bed of matrix. The striking dendritic cluster is 3.5 cm long and all faces host pseudos. This is an exceptional and rich combination example from this noted locale and we seldom get them in such size!. 624 grams or 1.4 pounds mass. Valued at $2000-2500, at least. this is a major example of this type. At Munich show, I have seen lesser, for thousands of euros prices
