Item Description

A sharp, classic, willemite crystal aesthetically perched on a stalk of calcite and willemite with embedded franklinite crystals from Sterling Hill. The lustrous, orangey-tan crystal has textbook, hexagonal form. One side is contacted, but this remains a showy, highly representative thumbnail example of the species and famous locale. Super green fluorescence on the willemite and orange for the calcite.
