Unusual Galena (Dr. Gary Hansen Coll.)

Item Description

A very cool looking and RARE style galena specimen from the famous Sweetwater Mine and the Dr. Gary Hansen Collection. Splendent, intergrown elongated metallic-gray cubes form a very artistic, dramatic and unusual stalactite "bar". The fabulous slightly CURVED large crystal is 4.0 cm and some of the smaller crystals have striking stepped-growth on this surreal 360-degree miniature. Superlative, rare and very nearly pristine, with only a trivial termination edge bruise. The attachment is at the base. Old material from the 1970s or early 80s. Valued at $750 for unique quality and rarity.
