Dolomite with Sphalerite
specimen number:
1691022
location:
Philadelphia Mine, Rush, Marion Co., Arkansas, USA
description:
The top side of this 15.0 x 14.0 x 5.5 cm matrix is mostly covered by pearly pink saddle shaped crystals of dolomite measuring to 1.5 cm in size. Minor crystallized sphalerite appears along one edge. Minimal micro-chipping present throughout as seen, still I think in very good condition considering the size of the piece and number of crystals present. Very nice example for the species from this locality. From material collected in the early 1970s. Shipping weight: 3.05 pounds.
Size: 15.0 x 14.0 x 5.5 cm (large-cabinet)
