Fluorite with Pyrite Galena and Sphalerite$1,800.00




Wire transfers available, to set up
Although labelled as San Antonio El Grande mine, no such company name has ever existed, but the name is frequently used by collectors and is therefore seen written down on many specimen labels. More correctly, it should be San Antonio mine, which was the first economic tin mine in North America. Although Fluorite is well-known from the mine, it is usually purple in colour. In about 2004, a pocket containing extremely glassy colourless Fluorite cubes was encountered on Level 13. Specimens from this find are now rarely seen, making this large display specimen very special. It features many completely colourless, and extremely sharp, cubic crystals to 2 cm on edge on a dense mixed sulphide matrix. There is some very slight chipping to a few of the Fluorite crystals, but overall it is in really excellent condition.
