MIN#SILVER-32 NEW!
Fine wire of Native Silver atop Acanthite
matrix!
There were specimens with more matrix and some with more wires but they just didn't
compare in terms of aesthetics and grace in my opinion. This one features a thick .7 cm
wire at the base, set atop a bit of matrix, curling and branching up into a thinner wire
at the top. The entire specimen measures 10.3 cm in height with a smaller wire branching
out towards the left. Another thing I liked about this specimen was the antiquish patina.
From the Huangtongxiang Mine, Lujiang, Anhui Province of China.

NEW FIND!! New find of swirling Native
Silver wires on Quartz matrix!
This specimen is among the first Native Silver specimens to be found at the
Imiter Mine in Morocco. A single boulder was collected shortly before the
Tucson Show and broken into several specimens. This was be far the best
specimen of the find. The matrix is a cluster of rough Quartz crystals with
a few terminations here and there. The clustered wires of Silver in the
middle are incredibly dense and rich! Measures 8 cm by 7 cm in size.
