OPAL7 - Boytroidal Opal
$ 95.00 (=~ € 88.85) SOLD
Durango, Mexico
miniature - 3.3 x 2.7 x 2.2 cm

This comes from a recent discovery of a small-scale mining operation around Durango, Mexico. Some of the pieces I looked at still had roots on them, indicating a deposit relatively close to the surface. the opal itself is remarkably clear and intact. The fluorescence is extreme under both long wave and short wave (short wave pictured). 

It's in great shape without any dings.

OPAL9 - Boytroidal Opal
$ 115.00 (=~ € 107.55) SOLD
Durango, Mexico
thumbnail - 2.9 x 2.5 x 1.5 cm

This comes from a recent discovery of a small-scale mining operation around Durango, Mexico. Some of the pieces I looked at still had roots on them, indicating a deposit relatively close to the surface. the opal itself is remarkably clear and intact. The fluorescence is extreme under both long wave and short wave (short wave pictured). 

This piece is a neat miniature, where the opal seems to have "percolated," up on the chalcedony matrix. Mounted on black acrylic base. Pictures show both sides.

Without damage.

HEULANDITE1 - Heulandite with Stilbite
$ 95.00 (=~ € 88.85)
Jalgon, Maharashtra State, India
small cabinet - 8.0 x 6.3 x 5.3

This beautiful piece shows the aesthetic combination of pinkish/peach Heulandite and orangy/peach Stilbite. Although zeolites from India are common, really good ones are not common. This is a really good one, that shows dramatic forms and bright luster.  It's in fine condition, there is a minor piece cleaved off one of the smaller stilbites (not eye-catching).

Quartz var. solution Quartz from Jeffrey Quarry, North Little Rock, Arkansas [db_pics/pics/quartz28a.jpg] Quartz var. solution Quartz from Jeffrey Quarry, North Little Rock, Arkansas [db_pics/pics/quartz28b.jpg] Quartz var. solution Quartz from Jeffrey Quarry, North Little Rock, Arkansas [db_pics/pics/quartz28c.jpg]



QUARTZ28 - Quartz var. solution Quartz
$ 45.00 (=~ € 42.09) SOLD
Jeffrey Quarry, North Little Rock, Arkansas
small cabinet - 5.2 x 4.3 x 3.0 cm

This attractive cluster is a good example of solution quartz, which is a rather uncommon occurence world wide. The Jeffrey Quarry was closed in the 1980's, and is famous for producing these super clear Quartz clusters that were formed in a silica-rich solution. It's in fine condition, without any visible damage. I got this out of an old collection, it was probably collected in the early 1970's.
