A beautiful and aesthetic CABINET-SIZED Red Cloud Mine specimen from the 2003 find called "Red Gem Pocket." Very gemmy and lustrous, orange-red wulfenite crystals to 1.1 cm are attactively scattered on a partially iron-oxide coated quartz crystal matrix. Wulfenite on quartz was not very common from this pocket and this is one of the very few cabinet-sized specimens that came from this find. The mine is now closed and back-filled, so this is a rare opportunity to obtain a larger Red Cloud wulfenite specimen. 11.8 x 6.2 x 4.0 cm
