Quartz var. Amethyst
specimen number:
2511084
location:
Pea Ridge Mine, Washington Co., Missouri, USA
description:
Glassy gemmy crystals of amethyst averaging 0.5 cm in size over the top of a 6.0 x 3.0 x 2.0 cm matrix. I think in very good condition. If I remember correctly, only one series of pockets of this material was ever found back in the 1970s. It is quite uncommon defined and amethyst from this locality available on today's market. Shipping weight: 0.1 pounds. Ex Stephen Blyskal collection.
Size: 6.0 x 3.0 x 2.0 cm (small-cabinet)
