Large open vug in Limonite loaded with Legrandite crystals and occassional cream colored Smithsonite crystals. The crystals are undamaged and occur as singles, clusters, and 'starburst' formations. Rare to find such a large area covered with so many great Legrandite crystals.

A 3cm dark red Spessartine crystal with a small Schorl attached to the left side. Two smaller garnets adorn the Schorl. Contacted on the backside. Rare locality piece and a quality specimen. Comes with an old Rincon Mineral Co. label.

Complete 2.3cm Spessartine crystal in Feldspar with a nicely terminated Feldspar crystal. There is another smaller Garnet intergrown with another terminated Feldspar crystal on the backside. The old label only gives 'Anza' as the locality.

A fossil bivalve shell that has been completely replaced by translucent pink Rhodochrosite. The shell is wonderfully preserved with both sides present and visible. One end has been cut to reveal the inside. The old iron mine where these were found is long closed and these are no longer being found.

Large open vug with white Hemimorphite crystals. The main cluster is an incredible 4.5cm wide fan-shaped formation. An unusual and distinct example of a fairly common mineral. If you've wanted a good Mexican Hemimorphite but think they all look the same, this one is for you.

Glassy and lustrous 1.8cm green Grossular in matrix. Undamaged with areas of transparency. From the type locality for the species.

Red garnets in Quartz. Main crystal is elongated and 1.6cm in length. Note that this is not from Garnet Hill locality where prolific amounts of Almandine occur in a pink Rhyolite matrix. From an old collection, the locality was only given as Ely.

Black Schorl crystals attached to a large white Feldspar crystal. The Schorl have glassy luster and all but one have perfect triangular pyramidal terminations.

Thick books of translucent yellow/green Muscovite on Quartz. Good California Muscovite specimen.
