Brochantite
Douglas Hill Mine, Artesia Lake, Yerington District, Lyon Co., Nevada, USA
Small Cabinet, 7.0 x 6.4 x 5.3 cm
SOLD
Scintillating, emerald-green to forest-green brochantite covers the sculptural sandstone matrix on this fine specimen from the less well-known Douglas Hill Mine of Nevada. Some of the brochantite is gemmy. The mine produces copper. Highly representative of the species and locale and seldom available. Ex. Wes Parker Collection, I am told from an early 1990s find here.
