Description/Interesting Notes:
A terrific example of hodgkinsonite from Franklin!!! This specimen hosts a rich showing of rich, purplish pink hodgkinsonite paired with
willemite and franklinite!!! The hodgkinsonite is present as massive material throughout much of the specimen and has rich purplish pink color and some
areas of marked translucence as well!!! Upon close inspection, one can find some small areas of hodgkinsonite that have
some crystalline features as well!!! One can also see elongated, prismatic crystals of willemite in association as well!!! There also
appear to be some tiny, razor sharp, millimeter sized brownish andradite crystals also present!!! Under SW UV the willemite fluoresces a
bright yellow green of course!!! 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!!!
