Cerussite on Chrysocolla
specimen number:
3451186
location:
79 mine, Gila Co., Arizona, USA
description:
Wonderful example for the species from this locality with prismatic needlelike crystals of cerussite measuring to 1.0 cm in height over the top of this blue chrysocolla matrix. For what this is I think in terrific condition as seen in the picture and video. Previous labels come from the collection of Les and Paula Presmyk. One of the label notes that the piece was collected by John Mediz on December 12, 1985.
Size: 8.0 x 5.0 x 3.0 cm (small-cabinet)
