Selenite Peru 7.2 X 5.5 X 3.5cm Although this specimen came without a mine locality, I feel it is a great value for someone looking for an aesthetic specimen. The crystals are water clear, and there are small amounts of chrysicolla to add color. Price:

Siderite Peru 19.5 X 11.2 X 5.6cm My wholesaler was brought these plates of siderites about 22 years ago. I bought two then and sold them over time. On my last visit, weeding through his older flats, I found this one. The only locality information that had been given was "Peru". Regardless, the lusterous army green assemblage includes lenticulated curvilinear rhombohedra along with spherical aggregates and stalagtitic formations. Spectacular plate! Price:

Tetrahedrite on quartz on Pyrite Casapalca Mine, Lima Department Peru 15.7 X 11 X 5cm A fabuluos older piece of massive pyrite on which formed bright metallic tetrahedrites to 1cm and sprays of small quartz crystals. This is one of my last of my stash which I purchased 15 years ago. I don't believe tetrahedrites of this quality are coming out anymore. Some crystals do have tipping, but you need a loupe to see it. Shipping weight is 3.5lbs. Price:

Villiaumite with Natrolite Koashva Mine, Khibina Massif, Kola Russia 5.3 X 3.2 X 3.0cm A super specimen of this rare sodium fluoride. Partial crystals to 1.5cm in a translucent deep red color. The red is actually a much deeper blood red than the well lit photos exhibit. Many good faces. Natrolite crystals run through and on the villiaumites, adding wonderfull contrast. Very well priced as I was able to purchase it, with another, at a very good price. The second piece is not listed and is even better (thus more expensive). Inquire if interested. Price:

Willemite with Mimetite and Malachite Tsumeb Mine, Tsumeb Namibia 4.4 X 3.5 X 3.0cm This is a fantastic loupe specimen. The willemites are spherical and near gem clear, covering the matrix but almost invisible, due to their clarity, save for their luster. The mimetites are on the front and back forming as acicular divergent sprays and isolated bundles. The back is dominated by blebs of malachite. The more I look the more is revealed. Comes with an older label with a notation "Bob Stewart 6-77. The pictures don't reveal the brilliance of this specimen. Price:
