Specimens C - D - E

JC3913.  Calcite.  San Antonio mine, Santa Eulalia, Chihuahua, Mexico.  5 cm x 5.5 cm   66g.  $15.00.  A stalactitic group of crystals colored red by hematite inclusions.  
JC2895.  Calcite with included chalcopyrite, quartz.  Cavnic, Romania.  8.2  x 8.2 cm.  122g.  $40.00.  Pleasing combo piece.  
JC3626.  Calcite.  Relief Canyon Au mine, Pershing Co., Nevada.  6.3 cm x 7.7 cm.  286g.  $20.00.   About five years ago we found a small vuggy area in the bottom of one of the pits with a brecciated vein of calcite and octahedral fluorite.  The area was very limited in size and after a lot of hard work, produced about one flat of calcite and fluorite.  This is one of those pieces.  These are the best of this very limited find.

JC3630.  Calcite.  Relief Canyon Au mine, Pershing Co., Nevada.    5 cm X 8.2 cm.  279g.  $15.00.   About five years ago we found a small vuggy area in the bottom of one of the pits with a brecciated vein of calcite and octahedral fluorite.  The area was very limited in size and after a lot of hard work, produced about one flat of calcite and fluorite.  This is one of those pieces.  These are the best of this very limited find. 
JC3631.  Calcite, fluorite.  Relief Canyon Au mine, Pershing Co., Nevada.    5 cm x 7.7 cm.  173g.  $20.00   About five years ago we found a small vuggy area in the bottom of one of the pits with a brecciated vein of calcite and octahedral fluorite.  The area was very limited in size and after a lot of hard work, produced about one flat of calcite and fluorite.  This is one of those pieces. These are the best of this very limited find.   A crude octahedron of lavender fluorite encased in white calcite. 
JC3646.  Calcite.  Relief Canyon Au mine, Pershing Co., Nevada.    3 cm x 3.8 cm  59g.  $10.00    About five years ago we found a small vuggy area in the bottom of one of the pits with a brecciated vein of calcite and fluorite.  The area was very limited in size and after a lot of hard work, produced about one flat of calcite and octahedral fluorite.  This is one of those pieces.  These are the best of this very limited find.

JC3270.  Cassiterite.  Pingwu, Sichuan prov., China.  1 1/4" x 1 1/2"  65g.  $75.00   A shiny group of crystals.  There is some slight chipping along the edge of a few of the crystals.  Some dealers call it "edge rubbing".   
JC3898.  Cerussite, calcite.  Touissit dist., Oujda-Angad prov., Oriental region, Morocco.  3 cm x 3.2 cm tall x 5 cm wide.  44g.  $30.00.     Nice clean crystals on sandstone like matrix.

JC3991.  Conichalcite, calcite.  Ojuela mine, Mapimi, Durango, Mexico.  3 x 7 cm.   $20.00   59g.  Dark green conichalcite with colorless calcite spread around.  
JC4027.  Conichalcite, calcite.  Ojuela mine, Mapimi, Durango, Mexico.  6 x 6 cm  131g.  $10.00.   Dark green crystals partly coating matrix.   This one was photographed in tungsten light, so the conichalcite is slightly more yellow than in person. 
JC2879.  Copper.  Broken Hill mine, Broken Hill, New South Wales, Australia.  4.3 cm x 5 cm.  47g.  $75.00.  These were collected many years ago, but I'm not sure of the exact date.  A good copper from here.

JC3820.  Dioptase, duftite.  Tsumeb, Namibia.  3.5 cm x 6 cm wide.  98g.  $150.00.  Pretty vug of brilliant green crystals.  The matrix is a whitish gray color, not the pinkish tint shown in the photo. 
JC3818.  Dravite, stilbite?  Orongo, Namibia.  5 cm x 6 cm.  67g.  $20.00.  A brown dravite crystal is set termination down into what looks like stilbite.  The upper end of the dravite is actually the bottom, and where it was attached to the matrix.  I tried doing a photo of it with the broken end down, and it looked worse than this photo.
