Item Description

An exceptionally rich, showy specimen of white tsumcorite, which is a display piece in its own rights. On the tsumcorite, at the edges rather, are small spots of red jamesite (small micros visible with a loupe, to which many arrows point). This is the type locality for both species. VERY RARE material from the Pasco, Washington collection of Andrew Micklancic
