Pyrargyrite with Gold var. Electrum

Kettle Mine, Vulcan Mountain, Curlew, Danville District, Ferry Co., Washington

12.9cm x 8.8cm x 1.1cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

A rare combination of two highly prized mineral species - pyrargyrite and gold var. electrum from Washington!!! This specimen consists of broad, polished slab that shows a rare vein of pyrargyrite and gold var. electrum!!! While there is a thin vein of pyrargyrite and native gold var. electrum that can be seen on both sides and travels the length of the specimen - there is a large, prominent mass on one side of the specimen that hosts a dense and impressive showing of both species!!! The pyrargyrite appears as darkly colored material with reddish highlights and a somewhat metallic silvery luster and the native gold var. electrum is present as brilliantly metallic, silvery-golden masses densely scattered throughout the darkly colored pyrargyrite!!! Ever since I first read about this occurence I couldn't wait to see one of these rare combinations of fabled pyrargyrite and native gold in person!!! Amazing, old time material!!! This specimen retains a handwritten label from Bob Jenkins as well!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
