Apache mine in Globe Hills District, Gila Co., Arizona is one of the classic Vanadinite localities in the US but is also one of the most unsafe. Described in detail by Wendell Wilson in his 1971 article in The Mineralogical Record this very unstable mine had been know to produce fine Vanadinite specimens since the 1930s and continued to do so during the 1970s but in increasingly risky conditions for the collector. The Vanadinite from Apache mine is famous for its blood-red colour, long before the finds in Morocco decades later, and this large miniature specimen shows this well, with well-formed hexagonal prisms to 4 mm in length sparsely distributed on matrix. Coming from David Hardman's collection this is older material dating to the 1970s.
