location:
Monteponi Mine, Sardinia, Italy
description: Classic Sardinian specimen with large bladed lustrous and mostly gemmy crystals of anglesite measuring to almost 3.0 cm in size coming off matrix. Typical of these slight damage is present, I believe that this piece still is in very good condition. The matrix consists mostly of galena. Brightly fluorescent under longwave ultraviolet light.
