Native Silver & Acanthite with Quartz var. Amethyst

Amethyst Mine, Amethyst Vein, Creede District, Mineral Co., Colorado

4.8cm x 4.5cm x 3cm

Ex. Robert E. Jenkins II Collection No. 3999


Description/Interesting Notes:

A terrific example of native silver and acanthite from Colorado!!! This specimen consists of massive, pale purple amethyst that hosts a rich showing of acanthite and native silver!!! The silver and acanthite are much more readily discernable in person - and especially impressive with magnification!!! There are some sulphides in association as well!!! Aside from the associated sulphides however, there is one very interesting microcrystal tucked in one of the vugs - what appears to possibly be a small xanthoconite crystal!!! There are at least 2 others to be found as well!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! This specimen is from the Colorado suite of the Jenkins collection and retains his original personal collection label!!!
