TOP GALENA SPECIMEN
Stunning Top Galena Specimen, very well formed and shiny. This is a really aesthetic piece with great shape, well formed crystals and glossy wet surfaces. The Crystals have formed Cubic shape with the corners missing forming a Cuboctahedron or Octacube. There is a small section of Truncated (stepped) Crystal Galena and a few small Quartz Crystals. I suspect there is a higher Silver content which helps create these glossy Crystals, amazing. A superb specimen from a premier location. Start or add to your own metals collection.

FLUORESCENT ZIRCON CRYSTAL 43
Fluorescent Zircon Crystal 4. Also known as a Zircon Bomb. Deep red brown colour in the sunlight and fluorescent yellow under UVA and UVC. It is rare to get yellow fluorescent minerals let alone in Crystal form. A super collectors specimen and rare. Classic location too. I spoke to the Professor about the fluorescence source and he suspects it comes from a mild form of radiation. Thus also not a good idea to cut these gemstones into pendant, as it is worn close to the Thyroid Gland.
