Item Description
Stilbite from this deep and remote mine is actually quite rare! Very little has hit the market, mostly through colelctor Peter Lyckberg who descends with permission to get it on some fairly risky trips. This was collected in the 2500 foot levels of this famous iron mine, by Peter, and traded to Harold in the 1980s for soem Morenci material that Harold collected. It has a rich carpet of sharp crystals. Valued $300-400
