WMISC-05/62 - Wulfenite on galena Mezica (Slovenia) Large heavy mass of altered galena and rusty limonite almost completely coated by caramel colored platy crystals of wulfenite to 0.7 cm. on edge. There are other morphologies in different places as small psudocubic crystals or elongated pyramidal crystals to about 0.6 cm. long (the later mainly at bottom). A few small grey crystals of cerussite to about 0.3 cm. at bottom. Considering the fragility of wulfenite and the age of the specimen, damage is minimal (a few small broken crystals here and there). From an old Spanish collection with label stating locality as Myers (Mies is the former name of Mezica). 12x7.5x6.8 - 530 € |

Calcite is fluorescent in a reddish-pink color. Nice specimen from this classic district. Comes from an old recycled French collection. 8x7x5.3 - 215 € |
