Sphalerite and fluorite - Elmwood Mine, Tennessee, United States

€90.00

Tax included

A beautiful specimen consisting of a matrix rich in sphalerite, displaying two particularly interesting appearances depending on the view.

On one side, the sphalerite forms a coating of small, translucent, orange-brown crystals that are exceptionally lustrous; their adamantine luster is spectacular when held up to the light. The crystals feature numerous small facets that give the surface a very sparkling appearance.

The other side has a lighter appearance, with sphalerite in shades ranging from light brown to honey-colored. Both sides are dotted with a few small cubes of colorless to very slightly bluish fluorite.

The specimen thus displays a striking contrast between the different mineral generations and colors. The peripheral areas show a few damaged crystals, but the center of the specimen retains a rich mineralogical diversity and is of great aesthetic interest.

11.5 × 9 × 3.5 cm

Highlights of this specimen:

- Very abundant and richly crystallized sphalerite.
- Translucent, orange-brown crystals that are highly lustrous on one face.
- The other face displays light brown to honey-colored hues.
- Presence of small, colorless to slightly bluish fluorite cubes.
- Beautiful diversity of textures and colors between the two faces.
- Classic and sought-after provenance from the Elmwood Mine.
