QUARTZ -
$145
There are many sharp, highly lustrous, gem Quartz
crystals that make this specimen so attractive with
great aesthetics, not to mention that there are two
crystals which grew exactly the same length and totally
parallel to one another. It appears to be one half of a
"Japan-Law" twin. Unfortunately, there are some
damaged crystals, but this piece is unique.

TETRAHEDRITE with Calcite and
Quartz -
$475
Very large, lustrous, sharp crystals of Tetrahedrite
associated with Calcite and Quartz. As you can see
from the pictures, there is a minor "dusting" of Pyrite
crystals on the Tetrahedrite. This is not iron staining,
but a minor deposition.
Locality: Casapalca mine, Lima Dept., Peru
Specimen Size: 8 x 6.5 x 4.5 cm.
