Fluorite and Galena

80 x 57 x 50 mm overall

Cubes of classic Blanchard blue Fluorite to 11 x 11 x 10 mm are nestled in complex cubes of oxidized grey-brown Galena to 21 x 16 mm. The Galenas are partly coated with a fine druse of tiny Anglesite crystals beginning to pseudomorph the Galena. Small, orange dipyramidal crystals of Wulfenite provide a nice accent. The base of the specimen consists of fine points of white Quartz. This specimen is in excellent condition, is from the Glory Hole (Portales), and is ex. Tom & Loretta Massis collection.
