***Bringing you the very finest minerals ebay has to offer!!***


Anorpiment

Palomo Mine, Castrovirreyna Province, Huancavelica Department, Peru

2.65cm x 1.7cm x 1.16cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

A rare example of this NEW mineral species from the type locality!!! Anorpiment (formerly IMA 2011-014) is a newly described mineral species that is a triclinic dimorph of orpiment!!! This was one of the exciting new finds at Tucson this year - truly "NEW" material!!! This is rare material and there was only a very small amount of this material available!!! We acquired this specimen from Jaroslav Hyrsl who was one of the people who worked on describing the species!!! Most of this material consists of unsightly, amorphous masses, however this specimen was rather attractive for the species consisting of bulbous botryoids of yellow-green color!!! This was the only specimen of this new mineral we acquired so don't miss out!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY FEBRUARY 9th!!!

**We have just returned from the annual Gem & Mineral Show in Tucson, Arizona!!! Be sure to stay tuned as we will be listing our exciting acquisitions throughout the next coming weeks!!!***
