Description

You are bidding on a small thumbnail sample with a small vug hosting a nice blue spray of very rare gilamrite crystals with malachite, cornwallite and arseniosiderite pseudos after scorodite. This strange locality produced a very strange suite of secondary species and this is one of the few gilmarite samples that were found by Martin in 2010. Verified by several analytical methods.
