Here is some interesting material from the famous Bisbee mine that many collectors have not seen: this is sericite, which is basically chalky white volcanic ash - in which are embedded crystals of pyrite that formed within it. Dave Stoudt acquired this piece from the Youngblood estate sale in 1998.
