Harold self-collected this in 1994 (when he was pushing 70) by descending into the old workings of the 79 Mine. It is a beautiful and unusual, and large, specimen with glistening sugary quartz sprinkled in a very thin layer over large hemimorphite balls. All is in a complex, 3-dimensional matrix with pockets. Some small bits of calcite are the white material in association near the base of the piece. From the 3rd level. Ex. Harold Urish Collection.
