Item Description

Sculptural arborescent filagrees of metallic Ag-Sb dyscrasite crystals are artistically and aesthetically set atop two sides of the sculptural tapered specimen of massive calcite and brecciated matrix. Dyscrasite is a signature species from this silver-rich vein, that was mined from mid-2008 to spring 2010. It is the only mine in this well-known District, that produced dyscrasite (MINDAT). A showy and highly representative example of the combination species and locality.
