Esperite with Calcite, Willemite, Hardystonite, and Franklinite

Sterling Mine, Sterling Hill, Ogdensburg, Franklin Mining District, Sussex Co., New Jersey

11.7cm x 6.1cm x 4cm

Ex. Albert Peppis Collection No. A-85


Description/Interesting Notes:

A gorgeous example of this rare and sought after Franklin species!!! This specimen hosts a rich and brilliantly fluorescent showing of esperite in association with calcite, willemite, hardystonite, and franklinite!!! The esperite fluoresces a bright lemon-yellow and is accompanied by fluorescent splashes of green, red, orange, and purple!!! I rarely, if ever photograph fluorescent minerals and I must say that these pics don't even come close to showing just how significant, saturated, and aesthetic the coloration is!!! This beauty displays fantastically from every side and angle!!! Absolutely stunning in person!!! This specimen is from the Albert Peppis Collection and retains its original label!!! We just recently acquired the lifelong collection of Albert Peppis and will be posting detailed information about both him and the collection to our "About Me" page - so be sure to check it out!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
