Pyromorphite

Les Farges Mine, Ussel, Corrèze, Limousin, France

2.53cm x 1.84cm x .95cm

THIS AUCTION WILL END **FRIDAY,** NOV., 25!!!


Description/Interesting Notes:

This is a remarkable, very atypical pyromorphite crystal from this famed locality!!! This specimen consists of a matrix of chunky quartz points that host a striking display of bright, intense yellow-green pyromorphite!!! The crystals are highly lustrous and have marked translucent clarity!!! This specimen came from Howard Belsky, who handled a significant quantity of material from this locality during its heyday!!! When we acquired the old dealer stock of Howard Belsky several years ago there was a wide variety of pyromorphites from Les Farges, exhibiting a wide range of habits and colors, many of which were rather unusual compared to the "classic" Les Farge material - however there were none quite like this!!! From what I understand, there were a very small number of these electric yellow-green specimens found during this mine's relatively few productive years!!! This specimen is simply gorgeous in person!!! The pics say it all - it literally looks fluorescent in person!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! 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!!!
