Item Description
Mineral specimens from this obscure mine, less than one mile from the famous Red Cloud Mine are EXTREMELY RARE and are seldom on the market. A 1.0 cm, gemmy and lustrous, orange-red wulfenite blade is jauntily set on the 3-dimensional gossan matrix covered with sparkly drusy calcite. Ex Harold Urish Collection and obtained from Chris Lehman from California at Tucson in February, 1998. It sure looks like Red Cloud wulfenite of that vintage.
