Item Description
Wulfenites from the much less well-known Denver Shaft in New Mexico are RARE and are very seldom on the market. Pretty, highly lustrous, butterscotch-colored wulfenite prisms to 9 mm are richly scattered on the sturdy sculptural gossan matrix. The wulfies have nifty razor-sharp, beveled edges. These wulfenites look like Moroccan specimens, but are not. Very choice, old-time and fine material from this uncommon locale. Ex Robert Fender Collection.
