specimen number:
1551009
location:
Philadelphia mine, Rush, Marion Co., Arkansas, USA
description: Gorgeous cabinet sized classic Arkansas specimen with brilliant yellow micro crystallized smithsonite coding and replacing saddle shaped crystals of dolomite to 1.5 cm in size. This sits perfectly by itself for display and measures 12.5 x 8.5 x 7.5 cm in size. Very minimal chipping present is seen, still I think in very good condition for one of these. Known locally as Turkey Fat smithsonite, this is an excellent example. Shipping weight: 2.31 pounds.
Size: 12.5 x 8.5 x 7.5 cm (cabinet)
