Description
A brilliantly lustrous cluster of fiery orange mimetite crystals to 5 mm from the best finds at the Pingtouling mine around 2003-2004. Scintillating mimetites richly cover the matrix and crystals range in color from bright fiery orange to smoky orange creating a sensational variegation of color. Crystals are in excellent condition with only minor contacting around the periphery. A spectacular and colorful specimen from a defunct locality - these specimens, in this size, have not been seen in over a decade. This comes from the old stash of a collector friend. Displays well on a custom engraved acrylic base. Sparkly, and with top luster, this is not only a Chinese classic but a superb example of the species. Much more 3-dimensional in person.
Known provenanceKnowing where your specimen comes from and who owned it adds to its story and value. Good provenance helps prove it's authentic and preserves important details about its discovery.
