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


Liroconite

Wheal Gorland, St Day United Mines, Gwennap, Camborne - Redruth - St Day District, Cornwall, England

2.8cm x 2.5cm x 2.1cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

A fantastic example of this very rare and sought after "Holy Grail" mineral species from Cornwall!!! This specimen hosts a rich showing of intensely colored liroconite crystals on matrix!!! This specimen hosts sharp, lustrous, liroconite crystals prominently perched on matrix!!! There are clusters of complexly intergrown crystals as well as a prominent group of almost square-shaped crystals!!! The liroconite ranges in color from intense blue to a striking blue green!!! This specimen is much more crystalline and sharply defined than the pictures show - however their complex forms, translucence, and intense color make them difficult to capture in the pictures!!! This specimen dates to the mid 1800's!!! These specimens were found for just a short time in the mid 1800's and have been prized and highly sought after by collectors ever since!!! Don't miss out on this rare and valuable "holy grail" mineral species!!! 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 SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY AUGUST 30th!!!
