Pyromorphite
Bunker Hill Mine, 9th Level, Jersey Vein
Kellog, Shoshone County, Idaho
7.1 cm x 5.2 cm x 2.7 cm
Out of an old collection comes this unique and beautiful specimen of Pyromorphite from this historic mine.
This specimen has got to be the finest, most unique Bunker Hill Pyromorphite I have ever had to offer for sale.
This specimens comes from an early 1980's find, 9th Level, Jersey Vein.
This specimen hosts a stunning group of extremely curved clusters of Pyromorphite crystals,
that give a globular / botryoidal visual aspect to the specimen.
This form is seen with some of the orange crystals from the mine, but rarely ever with the deep olive green.
The pyromorphite crystals are extremely lustrous, olive green color over orange crystals on a limonite cast.
The olive greem color is a bit darker to the eye, than seen in the photos and video.
To say that these crystals are extremely lustrous is an understatement, the sparkle is amazing.
With the amazing luster, color and crystal form, the aesthetics are excellent.
A true American classic.
