Pyromorphite on Quartz
Black Pine mine, Phillipsburg, Montana, USA
Cabinet, 11.1 x 7.5 x 3.7 cm
Ex. John Marshall
SOLD
A glistening, brilliantly lustrous plate of really good quartz, serves as matrix for a jackstraw cluster of elongated brown pyromorphite crystals on this rare locality piece. I had personally never even seen any pyro from this mine, and here is not only a rich cluster (6 cm across), but on beautiful quartz matrix?! It is an oldtime specimen from the well known collection of John Marshall.
