Rare specimen of Chlorargyrite on Malachite from California!
Fine crystals of tan Chlorargyrite are framed by fibrous green Malachite.
From the old mining town of Calico, San Bernardino County, California.
Calico was established in the 1880's as a Silver mining town and at its height
had over 500 mines. When the price of Silver declined in the 1890's, the town
began to suffer and lose population. When the Borax operation shut down in
1907, the desert town was completely abandoned and became a true ghost
town. Today, the town has been preserved and made into a tourist park.
Specimens from Calico are very rare and this is the first I have offered!
Measures 5.4 cm by 6.5 cm in size.
