PYROL-2-19 - Pyrolusite - $ 150 Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA small cabinet, 6.3 x 3.6 x 2.1 cm
This matrix specimen of chatoyant, black, pyrolusite, in crystals to 1.25 cm across, has formed a basketweave pattern of crystal leapping off the matrix - rare, on the matrix, please note!
PYROL-2-20 - Pyrolusite - $ 50 Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA miniature, 5.5 x 2.0 x 1.6 cm
A matrix cluster of chatoyant, black, pyrolusite crystals, to .6 cm across.
PYROL-01 - Pyrolusite - $ 750 Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA cabinet, 12.3 x 5.5 x 2.3 cm
CABINET-sized plate, elegant and beautiful!
PYROL-02 - Pyrolusite - $ 475 SOLD Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA small cabinet, 7.2 x 4.4 x 1.5 cm
One of the few specimens of any size with real "relief" in that larger crystals are contrasted against a background matrix of small druse. Hence, priced a bit of a premium but one of our favorites.
PYROL-06 - Pyrolusite - $ 600 SOLD Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA cabinet, 11.4 x 4.9 x 1.9 cm
CABINET-sized plate of high quality
PYROL-07 - Pyrolusite - $ 1250 Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA cabinet, 10.8 x 6.6 x 1.7 cm
CABINET-sized plate of high quality, one of the best for the size recovered. Actually so dark and shimmery its almost colorful if that makes sense.
PYROL-08 - Pyrolusite - $ 200 SOLD Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA small cabinet, 6.8 x 3.7 x 2.0 cm
Sharp piece with high luster
PYROL-10 - Pyrolusite - $ 200 Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA small cabinet, 6.5 x 3.2 x 1.7 cm
Pretty, elongated specimen
PYROL-11 - Pyrolusite - $ 600 SOLD Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA small cabinet, 6.5 x 4.5 x 1.9 cm
One of the nicer pieces overall with seemingly slightly more robust crystallization and good edges.
PYROL-12 - Pyrolusite - $ 450 SOLD Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA small cabinet, 6.5 x 5.6 x 2.3 cm
A large, bright plate!
PYROL-13 - Pyrolusite - $ 900 Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA cabinet, 15.3 x 5.8 x 4.6 cm
CABINET-sized plate, one of the 2 longest and biggest in the lot, with super quality throughout
PYROL-14 - Pyrolusite - $ 750 Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA cabinet, 10.4 x 7.3 x 4.5 cm
A rare specimen that is not just the typical crust (thick though it is) with crystals atop. Here, the crust and crystals completely cover and surround a knoll of matrix underneath, and thus have a 3-dimensionality lacking in the other specimens here. This makes it very showy, as it stands up on its own the more.
PYROL-16 - Pyrolusite - $ 1250 SOLD Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA cabinet, 14.3 x 13.2 x 2.0 cm
A FINE, UNDAMAGED, ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS CABINET-sized plate, the largest in this lot (of which I had half the pocket).
PYROL-17 - Pyrolusite - $ 750 SOLD Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA small cabinet, 8.4 x 6.1 x 1.7 cm
One of my favorites, a fine small cab with excellent relief on the edges of the plate.
PYROL-18 - Pyrolusite - $ 1500 SOLD Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA cabinet, 14.7 x 8.9 x 2.2 cm
To my eye, this CABINET-sized plate is the best piece in the lot for overall size combined with quality, featuring superb crystals, including many with more relief on the edges, and overlal top lustre.
