Description |
At nearly 930 grams, this is a huge and significant example of this rare species, from perhaps its most classic old locality as far as actual display-quality specimens go. This specimen is covered by a blanket of fat, thick crystals to 6mm, about a thousand of them. It was traded to Rob Lavinsky by a collector who got it some time ago through an exchange with the California Institute of Technology's collection. Ugly perhaps, but for size and location, an important California specimen. |
