Mimetite (classic material)

Item Description

A beautiful, large miniature / small cabinet sized specimen featuring orange-yellow colored, semi-radial groups measuring up to about 1.1 cm on a tiny bit of oxidized matrix. Each Mimetite group is elongated, and while they are not narrow prisms, they aren't complete "spheres" either, rather somewhere in between. I love the eye-catching, distinct resinous luster on the Mimetites and the fact that the groups are fairly well-separated and defined makes them all the more enticing. A showy and three-dimensional display specimen of these well-known and fine quality Mimetites. No major damage that I can see, just some peripheral contacts underneath where the piece was removed from the pocket wall. Priced in our inventory at $900.
