Fine amethyst crystals rise to 1.1 cm above a carpet of small, white calcite crystals, all in a cleft on matrix. No damage. This locality is said to have produced the finest Italian amethyst.

A large but incomplete, opaque yellow rhodizite-londonite crystal on a tourmaline-rich matrix. It is not possible to differentiate between the rhodizite, the potassium-rich end member of the series, (K,Cs)Al₄Be₄(B,Be)₁₂O₂₈, and londonite, the cesium-rich end member of the series, (Cs, K, Rb)Al₄Be₄(B,Be)₁₂O₂₈ by visual inspection alone. Notable for the size of the crystal.

From the classic New York uvite locality coves this intergrown group of jet black, lustrous uvite crystals with a quartz pocket along one edge. Individual uvite crystals reach 2.6 cm. A few broken and contact points are seen, but the specimen is notable for the large mass of uvite it contains.

A nearly flat, somewhat spongy plate of tiny green mimetite crystals hosts a few opaque, orange wulfenite crystals. The wulfenites have a truncated, elongated bipyramidal (boxy) shape and reach 3 mm.

This specimen consists mostly of tiny, green mimetite crystals with some limonite matrix. Scattered about the clefts and vugs are opaque, truncated, elongated bipyramidal (boxy) shape wulfenite crystals that reach about 3 mm in length.

A carpet of tiny, green mimetite crystals is decorated with a generous collection of orange-brown, opaque wulfenite crystals. The wulfenites are elongated, truncated bipyramids (giving them a boxy appearance), and reach 7 mm in length. A few crystals missing along the edges, but no significant damage is noted.

A 1.3 kg pile of bright blue hemimorphite chunks, most with some matrix, and some with sawn edges. The pieces range from about 1 cm up to about 6 cm or more.

A cluster of tabular, deep brick red wulfenite crystals. The wulfenites range from translucent to opaque, and reach 7 mm along the crystal edge. The crystals are lustrous along the edges, whereas most of the broad faces are frosted. As is common for wulfenites below a few hundred dollars from this locality, a few crystals are incomplete.

A flat plate of matrix covered on both sides with a rich crust of brilliant, blue-green dioptase microcrystals. The dioptase is covered with a layer of colorless calcite, lending some sparkle. Another dealer's label which accompanies the specimen gives the locality as "Sunnyville, Arizona", but no such place exists. Probably from the Christmas Mine.

Clefts in matrix are lined with bright blue aurichalcite needles, which reach about 5 mm in length. In one spot the aurichalcite is accompanied by small, water-clear, terminated hemimorphite blades. Another cleft is lines with small, pale green rice-grain smithsonite crystals, accompanied by an aurichalcite spray. A nice association specimen.

From a locality famous for its thick, tabular wulfenites comes a fine descloizite miniature, dark carmel-brown in color, and composed of hundreds of small but glittering crystal rosettes. No damage.

A nearly flat plate of matrix, covered with two generations of smithsonite. The bottom layer is greenish and botryoidal (visible along the right edge of the specimen in the second picture), while the second generation is a light blue and more foliated in appearance. No damage.
