Item Description

Commodore Mine sphalerites are a Colorado classic. Sharp, metallic, highly lustrous, twinned crystals comprise this cute and aesthetic thumbnail. A nifty attribute of these sphalerites, is that they flash with areas of golden-orange to straw-yellow translucence under bright light. These caused a major stir at the Tucson Show, when they came out around 2001. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!
