Item Description

A 1.0 cm thick vein is an incredibly dense nest of spinel-twinned silver crystals. The crystals have a very nice variable patina and the nifty upright "feather" is 1.3 cm. The bit of attached shale wall rock is a nifty accent. It looks like a silver fish! Classic and rich material from Batopilas and the Dave Stoudt Collection. 16 grams.
