Item Description

A rarity for the locale. Here we have some excellent micro crystals of blue-black Vivianite which are intermixed with Quartz and Pyrite. We've never had a specimen of this material to offer in the auctions, and if you collect phosphates, micros or minerals of Bavaria, don't miss out on this one! Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#2314). Kay is a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see the article in the March-April, 2007 Mineralogical Record and the 50+ page article in the German Magazine "Mineralien Welt" November-December 2017).
