01hljdes ((COQUIMBITE, COPIAPITE)), $50 MINIMUM BID, Dexter 7 Mine, San Rafael Swell District, Emery County, Utah, 3 x 2 x 1.5 cm, Thumbnail to Miniature | |
Here is a rare species, Coquimbite, which is an iron sulfate along with the yellow Copiapite. During the last few years a find of excellent Coquimbite came out of Peru. I believe the Dexter 7 has been closed and sealed by the state of Utah. This is a fine specimen from Utah with fine purple crystals which are uncommon to rare. ex University of Pennsylvania but no documentation. |
