A small miniature plate sprinkled with many sharp yellow-green Ludlamite crystals and tiny Pyrites as well. An older specimen from the Blackbird Mine (Idaho) with a label from Dawson's Minerals (California) dealership from the 1961-1979 era. In fine condition the tiny Ludlamites are gemmy and look great under magnification. An affordable example.
A choice, very well crystallized plate of green Ludlamite crystals from the classic Blackbird mine. Several old labels (included) date this back to 1960, which was the period when the best Ludlamites in the US were found. The Ludlamites are deep green, sharp, translucent and in clusters, balls and rosettes. A choice US classic of the quality that is almost never seen on the market today. No damage and the matrix has been stabilized to prevent crumbling of the soft Sulfide base.
