You are bidding on a small sample with a vug in corroded galena hosting an extremely rare, discoidal kennygayite crystal associated with pale blue cuprocherokeeite, sprays of intergrown elyite/sidpietersite and a large grey cluster of cherokeeite on top of the main cluster of crystals (not in photo). I found less than 15 examples of crystallized kennygayite in total from the mine.
