Sillimanite with Chabazite

Benson's Mines, Benson, Star Lake, St Lawrence Co., New York

7.6cm x 6.7cm x 6.1cm

Ex. Albert Peppis Collection No. A-185


Description/Interesting Notes:

A rare, old time example of sillimanite from New York!!! This specimen hosts numerous "sunbursts" of radiating sillimanite crystals in a showy orange chabazite matrix!!! The luster and overall definition of the sillimanite crystals is much more dramatic in person!!! There are two large sprays of crystals and numerous smaller ones all around the specimen!!! There are at least two other unidentified species in association!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! This specimen is from the Albert Peppis Collection and retains his original label!!! We just recently acquired the lifelong collection of Albert Peppis, and detailed information about both him and the collection are on our "About Me" page - so be sure to check it out!!! 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 APRIL 16TH!!!
