Stunning specimen featuring fine
Native Silver dendritics on matrix!
I love the perfect Spinel Twin crystal that rises
vertically atop the specimen!
An .8 cm Acanthite crystal is located just below the Spinel Twin at 9 o'clock.

Misty-green cluster of Fluorite cubes
from Austria!
A great looking specimen that is glassy Fluorite all
the way around, on all sides. It almost
appears to be a floater with no point of attachment. I see an area that may have once been
matrix contact but it's covered by smaller, slightly etched Fluorite crystals. The
specimen is in
great shape overall with some minor contacts scattered about but nothing that really
detracts.
From Rieding Lake, Weißeck area, Murwinkel, Lungau,
Salzburg, Austria.
Measures 6.5 cm by 6.2 cm by 5.8 cm in total size.
Price $485

Brilliant specimen of

Brilliant specimen of yellowish-orange
Mimetite crystals on Limonite matrix!
This specimen is covered from one side to the
other with fine yellow Mimetite crystals and
clusters and they sparkle wildly under even the faintest lighting. The plate is in
excellent
condition with only the tiniest of contacts here and there. The matrix structure of the
plate is
slightly concave and this has served to protect a good portion of the crystal clusters
from any
rub or contacting. This is a great looking cabinet plate and one of the best I saw at the
show.
From the Santa Eulalia District, Mun. de Aquiles Serdán,
Chihuahua, Mexico.
Measures 9.6 cm by 13.7 cm by 4 cm in total size.

Fine halfbreed featuring Native Silver
crystals atop larger crystals of Native Copper!
This specimen can be displayed from several angles
but this one is my favorite. The bright
white and lustrous Silver crystals sit side by side atop the Copper, terminating outwards
in
different directions. The large Copper crystal at the bottom is accented by bits of
Calcite.
From the Keweenaw Peninsula, Michigan.
Measures 5.8 cm by 3 cm in size.

Lustrous specimen of lavender
Smithsonite atop matrix!
The botryoidal surfaces of this lovely specimen are
basically flawless with no major contacts
and a beautiful, pinkish-violet coloration. The luster shimmers atop the rolling
Smithsonite and
lighter patches of coloration provide contrast and additional color to this cabinet sized
plate.
From the El Refugio Mine, Choix, Mun. de Choix, Sinaloa,
Mexico.

A stunning cluster of Copper crystals with a super
shiny surface and lustrous
faces. There's a combination of Quartz, Calcite, and Epidote accenting between

the prettiest patinas I've seen in a long time on a Michigan Copper specimen.

Shiny Azurite crystal clusters on
Malachite!
A fascinating specimen due to the way the Azurite
cluster become more distinct and form large
individual crystals near the bottom. The clusters and Azurite crystals are all in
excellent condition
with a flashy luster. They fill the slightly concave structure in the middle of the
Malachite matrix.
From the Big Indian Mine, San Juan County, Utah.
