UNIQUE! Bronze crystals of Heulandite inside a Celadonite coated vug!
This unusual specimen is set inside a volcanic balsalt matrix and is MUCH better
than what I captured in the photo. The crystals are flashy and sparkle when held

SALE! #36

Awesome combo of golden Calcite, Dolomite xls, Quartz points, and Pyrite ps. Marcasite!
The Pyrite is pseudomorphing the Marcasite and this makes for some interesting flattened
crystals. The large Dolomite crystals in the middle tie both the Calcites at top and Quartz
points at bottom together, creating a wonderful display specimen from the Nanisivik Mine,
Baffin Island, North West Territories, Canada. Measures 11 cm by 6 cm in total size.

SALE! #37

Fine specimen of lustrous Hematite blades with Quartz!
This specimen has some of the sharpest, most distinct blades of Hematite
that I've seen on a specimen from Rio Marina, Elba, Italy. Usually the blades
are small or crushed and not very attractive. These are complete and measure
up to 2 cm in size. They have nice thickness as well with the far left blade right
at .6 cm thick! A brilliant specimen measuring 4.5 cm by 5.3 cm in total size.
Price $845

Tonopah, Nevada with mines in the distance.

SALE! #38

RARE SILVER!!! Sharp, lustrous crystals of Acanthite on Quartz matrix!
This is the rarest Acanthite specimen in my entire collection! It comes from
the Victor Mine which was part of the Tonopah Extension Company in
Tonopah, Nevada and dates to 1906-1910. Measures 3.9 cm by 2.8 cm.
The main Acanthite crystal (upper left) measures 2+ cm in length!
A CLASSIC Nevada Silver specimen from the early Jim Butler days.
I can't imagine more than a handful of these nearly century specimens still
exist and matrix specimens are unheard of outside of museums!
