5atjkis ((CALCITE STALACTITES, ARAGONITE)), $15 MINIMUM BID, Southwest Mine, Bisbee, Cochise County, Arizona, 6 x 4 x 4 cm, Miniature | |
Here is a specimen from Bisbee. It is a ceiling specimen with several rounded stalactitic mounds of Calcite with white opaque terminations with one having crude Aragonite on the termination. These were collected in about 2004 by dangerously rappelling in a large cave like chamber to collect specimens. Arizona specimens seem to be highly collectible with Bisbee especially so. |
