Pyromorphite - USA classic
Little Giant Mine, Mullan, Coeur d' Arlene District, Shoshone County
Idaho, United States
7.6 x 5.6 x 3.1 CM (cabinet)
price: $690
Late Summer 2021
Well-crystallized Pyromorphite crystals cover a matrix plate from the Little Giant Mine (Idaho, USA). This region has a long mining history and is well-known as the home of the Bunker Hill Mine, one of the world's great Pyro locales. Less famed but still quite important is the Little Giant, and this is an excellent example for this locality. A choice addition to a serious suite of Pyromorphite the quality is much better than just a locality specimen. Ex John Marshall Collection; John was a passionate collector of Pyros and his taste was excellent. John purchased this specimen in 1974 from the Paul Zimmerman collection. His collection card states "One of the best pieces I have ever seen from the locality". It is outstanding for this mine.
