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


Native Silver & Jalpaite with Chrysocolla

Jalpa, Mun. de Jalpa, Zacatecas, Mexico

6.04cm x 3.78cm x 1.81cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

A fantastic example of rare jalpaite and native silver from the type locality in Mexico!!! This rare, old time specimen hosts a very rich showing of dark gray jalpaite in association with native silver and turquoise-blue chrysocholla!!! In addition to a significant showing of massive jalpaite this specimen actually hosts some complex crystals of jalpaite to 8mm!!! Upon close inspection one can see areas of characteristically rounded, complexly crystalline jalpaite!!! Upon close examination, one can see that some of the jalpaite crystals still embedded in the chrysocholla actually have a paper-thin layer of native silver that encapsulates them around the perimeter!!! There are significant sheets of native silver that run through the specimen and protrude from the matrix as well!!! The silver is much richer than it might appear in the pictures!!! This is a fantastic, old time rarity indeed!!! Fine examples of jalpaite such as this are nearly impossible to obtain on todays market!!! 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!!!
