Calcite, Mimetite, and Quartz - $24 Red Cloud Mine, Silver District, La Paz County, Arizona Cabinet - 10.4 x 7.1 x 4.3 cm 304 grams Specimen status: Reserved Send an email with specimen number to order The matrix is covered with abundant,
light grey to colorless sparkling calcite. Scattered
among these calcites are tiny, colorless quartz points.
In several spots, but mostly around a concave portion on
one end of the specimen, are scatterings of tiny but
bright yellow mimetites. Some zones in the matrix glow
bright blue-purple under shortwave UV (fluorite?). Under
shortwave UV the same purple zones are seen, along with
some unidentified green specks (willemite?). No damage.
Something from the Red Cloud Mine besides wulfenite!
