Rosasite & Cerussite after Azurite Ojuela Mine, Mapimi, Mun. de Mapimi, Durango, Mexico 7cm x 4.6cm x 2.45cm Ex. Florence Mecke Collection Ex. Tony Nikischer Collection

Description/Interesting Notes: An absolutely INCREDIBLE example of rosasite from Ojuela!!! This specimen consists of a highly complex group of azurite crystals that have been completely replaced by intense turquoise blue colored rosasite crystals!!! In addition to these amazing pseudomorphs there are complex networks of elongated cerussite crystals - many of which have a partial coating of jet-black crystals of plattnerite (although they are tiny, they are sharp, lustrous prismatic crystals)!!! There are also a few tiny yellow crystals of an unidentified species present as well - present as complexly etched tabular crystals (wulfenite?)!!! Some of the pseudomorphs appear to be partially replaced by intergrown cerussite crystals as well!!! This specimen has stunning color and displays gorgeously all around!!! There is a lot going on with this specimen and it is simply amazing upon close study!!! Old material!!! This specimen is from the collection of Tony Nikischer!!! We just acquired the 6000+ specimen PERSONAL collection of Tony Nikischer and there are going to be some very exciting minerals to come in the upcoming days and weeks!!! Prior to the Nikischer collection this specimen was originally from the collection of Florence Mecke (acquired from the late 1930's until the 1970's)!!! 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!!!
