specimen number:
2451001
location:
Uchucchacua Mine, Lima Department, Peru
description:
A wonderful well crystallized example for the species from this locality with a cluster of deep red translucent terminated proustite crystals 3.0 cm across center nicely upon a 9.0 x 9.0 x 5.0 cm matrix. Very limited micro-chipping present, overall I think in very good condition. With some lighting, these are very red in color and show good translucency. A small cluster of metallic pearceite crystals present as well. Shipping weight: 0.88 pounds. Ex Jordi Povill collection.
