MIN#SILVER-91 NEW!

RARE SILVER!
Calcite accented Quartz point cluster sitting atop a mesh of Native Wire Silver and Calcite!
There appears to be a slight sprinkling of Limonite, giving a orangish hue to the Quartz.
What's really interesting about the specimen is the mesh of Silver wires and small Calcite
crystals located at the base and on the right side of the cluster. I can't recall seeing another
Silver specimen from Naica before, especially not one with Quartz crystals in association.
From the Naica, Mun. de Saucillo, Chihuahua, Mexico.
Measures 7.3 cm by 8.5 cm by 7.7 cm in size.

MIN#SILVER-97 NEW!

Classic specimen of Copper-Silver "halfbreed"!
This specimen is a true antique! It was mined at the Cashin Mine in Montrose County,
Colorado sometime between the years 1880 and 1902. The mine ran out of production
and closed over a hundred years ago. Measures 5.7 cm by 5.3 cm in size.
Price $785

MIN#SILVER-98 NEW!

Another Silver rarity! Native dendritic Silver with reddish sprays of Erythrite!
The Cobalt mining area was famous for its mix of Silver and Erythrite in much the same
manner that Creede is famous for Silver and Amethyst but unfortunately, most of the specimens
were not saved. Many collectors and miners would actually clean away the Erythrite to expose
additional Silver, thus destroying many classic specimens. Today, these combo pieces are
very hard to find. Pictured above is an excellent example measuring 7 cm by 5.8 cm in size.
From the Cobalt Mining District, Ontario, Canada.
Price $1750

MIN#SILVER-102 NEW!

ACANTHITE SEAM! I love large matrix specimens of Silver and this one fits the bill!
First of all, I want to point out that the matrix surrounding this crystal seam is very rich and composed
of numerous Silver Sulfide seams. In the open seam itself, you find dozens of Quartz needles and
Acanthite crystals! Many of the Acanthite crystals are actually draped atop Quartz points and almost
appear "melted" in places. This is due to the Acanthite pseudomorphing the high temperature
Argentite and adopting its exact shape. Measuring, this is one rich Silver specimen!
From Fresnillo, Zacatecas, Mexico. Measures 20 cm by 13 cm by 14 cm in total size.
