Item Description
Vanadinite and descloizite specimens are very uncommon from this most famous Arizona mine. The sculptural curved crust is richly lined with tan, hexagonal, vanadinite barrels and hosts two generations of descloizite crystals. Sparkly, translucent, reddish-brown microcrystals are richly peppered about and there are scattered clusters of black blades. A very highly representative and rare example of these combination species. Ex Harold Urish Collection and acquired from the Dun Collection in 1991. A must for the locality or species collector.
