SOLD
A beautiful and aesthetic combination specimen from the San Antonio Mine at Santa Eulalia and the Consie Prince Collection. Scintillating drusy quartz covers the multitude of rhodochrosite rhombs that fill the superbly placed vug in very sculptural, Chinese dhow ship-like sulfide ore matrix. There are even a couple of water-clear quartz crystals scattered about. Classic and very showy material from this well-known mine. Old, and seldom seen in this quality of specimen today.
