1042424) Pyromorphite - Daoping Mine, Gongcheng City, Gongcheng Co., Guilin Prefecture, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China Size: 4.0 x 3.2 x 2.0 cm (miniature) Price: $ 1000 ex. Lloyd Tate Collection.
Glowing lustrous green barrel-shaped crystals of pyromorphite to 1.3 cm in length are forming an aesthetic 4.0 x 3.2 x 2.0 cm cluster. Completely crystallized all around. With a 10x loupe I can find slight rubbing on one crystal termination edge, this on the back side of the piece. I could not see this with my naked eye. I think that this is in excellent condition damage-wise. Great color and luster. Ref: The Mineralogical Record 36(1) 25-33. Ex Lloyd Tate collection.
