Item Description

Sharp, bladed, orange color tabular crystals of Wulfenite are associated with gorgeous soft blue-green Willemite from the famous locality at Tiger. The largest Wulfenite measures 3 mm, but they look beautiful under magnification. A fantastic and fairly hard to find association specimen that would make a great addition to a secondary ore collection, an Arizona suite, or a coelcltion of Tiger minerals. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#12297). 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).
