Item Description
A micro specimen of intensely red colored "Hancockite" (now Epidote-(Pb)) crystals in a few small vugs. I did my best to photograph the crystals under the microscope, but this is truly a micro specimen, and the crystals are small. The piece originally came from the collection of Pat Gross to Rich Kosnar in 1991, and I have photographed Pat's hand-written label on the bottom of the micromount box.
