Description

Crocoite from The Adelaide Mine, Australia. 21st Century.


Crocoite is a rare lead chromate that can be exceedingly difficult to recover. In fact, there’s only one place on earth famous for fine examples, Tasmania. This specimen exemplifies the most desirable traits of the species with its arresting, orange coloration and explosive spray of elongated crystals. Their sleek luster and intense color are punctuated by a dark rock matrix. Dramatic and instantly impactful, it is a prime example of the species.

How this data is collected: Our system continuously monitors mineral listings from authorized dealer partners across the internet. We have explicit permission from all dealers whose listings we track - any dealers who have not provided specific and explicit authorization are NOT listed and NOT tracked by our system. When a previously available listing is marked as sold or removed from sale, we record this as a completed transaction. While we cannot guarantee the exact final sale price (as negotiations may occur), this data represents publicly listed prices for specimens that have transitioned from "for sale" to "sold" status. This provides valuable market insights based on observable listing behavior patterns.
