Description |
A rare specimen of Chalcanthite, from Bisbee. While the possibility exists for this species to be post-mining, we believe this was naturally formed in the mine in historic times and not from man-made activity as those specimens tend to be different in form. The piece is sparkly and attractive. From the well-known Tucson collection of 40-year collector, Harold Urish. |
