Plumbogummite ps. After Pyromorphite on Quartz

Item Description

An impressive, sculptural and surprising large plumbogummite after pyromorphite pseudomorph from recent finds at this well-known mine. Striking and highly unusual stalactitic and botryoidal growths and thin crusts of variable powder-blue plumbogummite after pyromorphite cover the front of the piece. The surprise on one end is rich coverage of translucent botryoidal yellow-green pyromorphite with only a thin plumbogummite coating. Periphery wear along one edge reveals the rich yellow color of the pyromorphite. A thin crust of massive milky quartz is on the back. This is a striking, uncommon and excellent large example from the find and has multiple display views.
