Phoenix Mine, Keweenaw County, Michigan
6.8 x 5.5 x 3.9 cm
Sold
Thin, curled, wire crystals of Copper over light green, botryoidal Prehnite and white colored Quartz crystals. This is classic material from the Phoenix mine, where in the past, I had collected many times but never found anything near as nice (the dumps are now gated off). Please note: the green color of the Prehnite is a little richer in person.
Condition: Good
Flaws: One of the Prehnite spherical aggregates is broken.
