Mineral specimen lot #1
(Seasonal Drawing 9/22/16 treasure picked by Renee in Missouri ) A beautifully white and sparkly clean microcline/albite in combination with smokey quartz crystals all around (shown center right in picture) is the show piece of this lot. Size of the show piece is a miniature at just under 2.5" and is a micromount delight! Also included for this lot, another smokey quartz crystal that at first glance appears to be broken which it was.....but mother nature has tried to fix the broken end over time and the broken end now has been "mended" naturally with many small terminations. The other pieces are, geothite (micromount), a nice pale amazonite crystal with good form, a pseudomorph hematite after siderite (awesome sheen and form), and another light tan colored microcline/albite formation with awesome shape and sheen too! ___________________________________________________________________ -------------------- CP-Owner/Administrator

This treasure choice is a polished batch of Colorado thundereggs.....some more shell than egg, but the "Fawn's head" center piece thunderegg is a dandy t-egg half!
Great agatization in all of them and all 5 are flat polished to a high sheen and ready for your collection. Both pair sets in the pic will stand on their own for shelf diplaying too. "Fawn's head" center piece egg half is approx. 3.5 inches wide x 2.5 inches tall. (Spring Fever Drawing 5/31/17 treasure picked by Jim Y. in Iowa ) -------------------- CP-Owner/Administrator
