Item Description

An exceptionally rich and outstanding large two-sided hubnerite specimen from this well-known classic Colorado locale. Striking jackstraw clusters of highly lustrous mahogany-brown blades abound on all sides of the sculptural mounded quartz matrix. The blades on this impressive piece reach a large 5.0 cm. This superb piece is probably from the major 1955 find. Specimens of this quality, richness and size are RARE and desirable from the Adams Mine. This small and exctinct mine has produced some of the finest US hubnerites. Very choice material from the Allen Dillwith Collection. A MUST for the species or Colorado collector! valued $750-1000
