Item Description

Beautifully burnished tiny silver wires are nicely scattered in clusters or as a stringer in the eeirely iridesecent purple bornite on this showy combination specimen from the famous San Martin Mine of Mexico. The thin vein of starkly contrasting white calcite is a super accent. It is always interesting and informative, that the mine level is known. Ex Wes Parker Collection.
