Sphalerite on Quartz

Wheatley Mines, Phoenixville Mining District, Chester Co., Pennsylvania

9.35cm x 7.5cm x 5cm

Ex. Ed McFarland Collection

Ex. Jim Chenard Collection


Description/Interesting Notes:

A large and impressive old time example of sphalerite from this famous historic locale!!! This specimen consists of a quartz crystal matrix that hosts a large, thick vein of crystalline sphalerite!!! The sphalerite has a deep orange brown color with lots of lively flashes and highlights!!! The sphalerite is glassy and there are a number of good crysal faces present!!! This specimen retains several old labels, including a very old unattributed handwritten one!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Rare, old 19th century material!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
