Item Description

A striking 2.5 to 3.0 cm vein of off-white calcite (red fluorescence) and reddish-brown willemite (neon-green fluorescence) dramatically courses through the large blocky matrix of granular green willemite and lustrous black franklinite. Rich hefty zinc ore at 2872 grams or 6.3 pounds mass. Ex Chet Lemanski Collection and acquired in 1985. The combination vein is really impressive on this classic combination.
