Item Description
Wulfenite and mimetite specimens from the famous San Francisco Mine are a Mexican classic. Transparent to translucent, glassy, golden-yellow, windowpane wulfenite crystals to 2.3 cm are richly and aesthetically strewn on botryoidal orange mimetite-covered matrix on this striking and very sculptural specimen. The specimen is in great shape for such rich coverage, with only a few gently bruised crystals. Excellent combination material from this noted locale. Comes with a custom-made and labeled lucite base valued at $100, for free. Valued at $1250-1500. Hand delivery required.
