Description

Mined in vein H14F, Level 7, U-Mine 21 in 1984. This is for sure one of the most amazing speciemn I ever saw from this locality. Dyscrasite / Silver formed a wonderful free-standing, treeformed assemble on small matrix. The assemble could not be better, the piece shows wonderful contrast and amazing quality, it is in excellent condition all around. The photos do not do jusice to the piece, it is even more tri-dimensional in person and very showy in various positions. No significant demges to report.
