B413 - Fluorite sold
Elmwood Mine, Carthage, Tennessee
Miniature - 5 x 4.9 x 4.0 cm
One of the curiosities of the Elmwood Mine are these specimens of etched Fluorite where a corner remains intact while other parts are etched away leaving this unusual formation. This is a good sized example and perfect all around, a complete floater.

Panasquiera, Portugal
Small Cabinet - 5.3 x 4 x 3 cm
Bright, bright silvery Arsenopyrite cluster with aesthetic form. Lustrous and complete all around with some small Apaties on the backside.
B415 - Nifontovite sold
Charcas, San Luis Potosi, Mexico
Miniature - 4.5 x 0.5 x 0.4 cm
Long, transparent single crystal of rare Nifontovite. There is one area of etched growth on one side near the termination, this is not damage, otherwise perfect and complete. This is a great price for such a long crystal, as crystals half the size have asking prices of twice this much, and 2cm is the common size for these - this one is huge!
