Item Description

A rarely seen specimen from the Eugenia Mine in Catalonia, Spain featuring dozens of "needle"-like crystals of bronze colored Millerite in a semi "spray"-like formation associated with crude crystals of silvery-brass colored Siegenite, plus minor massive Chalcopyrite on minor matrix. The green secondary mineral is Jamborite according to analysis from Jordi Fabre and Joan Abella (https://www.mindat.org/photo-490097.html). From the collection of Raul Sanabria Orellana, whose label states that this specimen was collected in 1998. If you collect sulfides or nickel-bearing species, don't miss out on this one, as they are seldom seen on the market.
