Item Description

A beautiful thumbnail sized specimen of this older material dating back to the mid 2000s at the famed Daoping Mine. While this locality is best known for its world-class Pyromorphites, this is a rarely seen combo specimen featuring gorgeous reticulated white "snowflake" twinned crystals of Cerussite measuring up to 1.1 cm across, assocaited with contrasting bright yellow-green colored hexagonal crystals of Pyromorphite measuring to a few mm, sitting on minor gossan matrix. This association is not terribly common from this mine, and nothing has come out in a few years at this point, so if you missed out on these when they first came out, be sure to pick up, as we don't have another to offer in the auctions right now.
