Item Description
A great piece for any collector of minerals from Utah, or Copper minerals of the United States. The defunct Bingham open pit, a huge disseminated deposit, was never known for crystallized specimens. Therefore, this specimen of bright, silvery-gey, Tetrahedrite crystals, to a few mm across, nestled among colorless, lustrous, translucent Quartz crystals is a rare specimen.
