Pyromorphite (Arsenian)
A gorgeous specimen from a unique pocket of 1997-1998, which I bought personally on a visit to the mine out of the personal collection showcase of Bobo Hopper, the owner. He collected it, as well. It is just JUICY, rich with color, caused by arsenic inclusions making hte pyromorphite a lustrous, silky, riveting orange hue. The great thing about this piece is that there are two generations, a sparkly druse upon an earlier generation of large and barrel-like crystals. This sparkle serves to accentuate the individual larger crystals and adds "pizzazz" to the piece, that it might otherwise lack. This is the best I have seen of this style by far, and it is pristin esave for two teeny and trivial dings, even complete on the back.
