This gallery is a suite of Veszelyite specimen.  This rare dark blue phosphate was collected from a pocket at the Black Pine Mine in Phillipsburg, Montana.  The mine is since closed and flooded so it is very highly unlikely that any other specimens will be found.  This is probably the last of any accumulation of specimens.     July 2005
