Item Description

The Franklin Mining District is world-famous for its fluorescents and rarities, and this piece from the Sterling Mine lives up to the billing. It is a classic combination of black, lustrous Zincite (Co-Type Locality) and brilliantly fluorescent Calcite (orange) and Willemite (green). Quite dramatic under UV light.
