Item Description

Scintillating, absolutely gemmy, hexagonal, vivid fire engine-red, vanadinite barrels are festooned on the quartz-covered matrix on this showy and excellent specimen from this obscure Arizona locality. The Cash Entry Mine is only a short distance from the famed Red Cloud Mine. Specimens from this locale are RARE on the market. Self-collected by Harold Urish in April, 1998 on the Brian Bond trip to the Silver District. These crystals resemble vannies from the nearby Pure Potential (North Geronimo) Mine. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
