Manganosite with Zincite, Leucophoenicite, and Jacobsite

Franklin, Franklin Mining District, Sussex Co., New Jersey

3.15cm x 2cm x 1.44cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

A fantastic example of this rare species from Franklin!!! This specimen consists of rich showing of very dark green manganosite in association with dark red zincite, reddish leucophoenicite, and black jacobsite!!! This specimen hosts a significant amount of manganosite and exhibits several well crystallized areas as well!!! There are numerous significant areas of lustrous, dark green manganosite visible all over the specimen and there is a large area that shows pronounced triangular/octahedral form that is actually a very well formed manganosite crystal with a thin coating of jacobsite and zincite (in person, this form is much more pronounced and obvious)!!! There is a significant mass of richly colored reddish leucophoenicite present as well!!! The leucophoenicite exhibits some marked translucence as well!!! Simply a fantastic example of this rare and sought after species from Franklin!!! This specimen retains an old Forest Cureton label as well!!! 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!!!
