Product Overview
Pale blue bladed celestite over a white barite matrix. Collected by Jim Belford (underground mechanic) c. 1989 from a unique pocket that produced about a dozen specimens: celestite is historically extremely rare from the district, prior to the Annabel Lee Mine and some significant finds from Minerva in 1995, celestite specimens could nearly be counted on two hands. This piece is a unique habit in my experience from the ore body. In great condition. Associated light brown/gray hydrocarbons.
