A prismatic crystal that just looks like the typical ones from Touissit, but a more detailed check shows the unusual richness of the termination, with lots of faces. Definition, brilliance, and color are the outstanding features of this sample. This azurite crystal, in the form of a broad spear point, exhibits electric blue highlights, lustre, and numerous step faces on both sides of the of the crystal. It is a magnificent crystal with only one minor ding/contact on one terminal face, otherwise, it is really aesthetic. A very old specimen, very difficult to get nowadays.

On a matrix of quartz crystals, with azurite, there are numerous fibrous aggregates of malachite crystals. Intense color, good brilliance and silky luster. A very bright piece.

Excellent cerussite cyclic twin as a star shape in which one of the crystals predominates. Very aesthetic, between transparent to translucent and with very well defined faces and edges. With a mino rocky matrix. Pictures do not do it justice, better in "person". From this classic Moroccan mines.

An excellent twin of cerussite, partially transparent, with alternating color zoning, slightly smoked. A complete piece, in very good condition for the usual of these specimens, with only a tiny chipping in the upper part and nicks in the base, from my point of view without affecting the beauty of the specimen. Very difficult to find today and really appreciated by collectors.

Very esthetic and historical specimen formed by crystals of cerussite, transparent to translucent, with an unusual brightness, elongated prisms, rich in faces and some twins. Closely observed, it becomes a crystallographic pleasure. From a classic Moroccan mine from where nowadays is not easy to find samples with this quality.

Aesthetic and historic specimen of anglesite, formed by a well developed tabular crystal, lanceolated, very rich in faces, with various rhombic prisms facets and striated pinacoids. It presents an excellent transparence and good brilliance. It is disposed on a galena matrix accompanied by other crystals of the same species. A pleasure to enjoy the crystallography of the piece. An ancient specimen of the former Manchión collection.

Sold

Very rich and brilliant specimen of anglesite, formed by several prismatic crystals, with transparence, brilliance, defined faces and edges and colorless. A pleasure to enjoy the crystallography of the species. They are partially covering a vug in a galena matrix. A sample from former Daunis collection (Barcelona), with many years on his "shoulder".

Sold

Rich group of so called arsenatian vanadinite showing defined edges and curved faces, barrel-shaped and many of them doubly terminated, with the characteristic color of this variety. These samples appeared on the market in the late 1970s as pyromorphite, until they were correctly determined by XRD and SEM-EDS analysis. This specimen has been analyzed, just for info, showing As 3.3%weight and 9% in V. Old specimen, nowadays rare to find.

Sold

Superb and brilliant specimen formed by botryoidal aggregates of malachite, of intense green color, and covered by small hyaline quartz crystals. Quartz gives it this aesthetic brilliance. Matrix is formed by a stockwork of altered chalcopyrite. Malachite specimens from this locality and with this shape are unusual.

Aesthetic anglesite specimen that shows a rich group of crystals with a razor-sharp chisel terminations, striated faces characteristic of the species, very sharp and with good transparency and colorless. This specimen date to the late 1970s and were found in the well known Moroccan mining area of Touissit.

As exceptional as rare specimen of smithsonita from shaft 9 in Toussit. A matrix with galena is partially covered by numerous sharp rhombohedral smithsonite crystals, delicious bluish color, transparent to translucent, forming aggregates, very showy. They accompanied by cerussite crystals very rich in faces and transparent. Good size and fine quality for a difficult piece to be seen nowadays.

First appointment for this Moroccan locality. This lead, iron and rich copper sulfate has been analyzed by SEM-EDS, we will send results to the buyer. Beaverite-(Cu) forms yellow earthy masses formed by lenticular crystals. It is accompanied by fibrous malachite crystals and azurite crystal aggregates. In the matrix we have observed the presence of cerussite. Only the combination of colors and species in  this sample is aesthetic itself.

A rich group of azurite crystals partially replaced by malachite. Azurite crystals show tabular and lenticular shape forming rosettes, with an intense blue color. Malachite shows the shapes of the crystals of azurite those has been partially replaced and fibrous to acicular crystals with a delicate velvety aspect very aesthetic.

A huge size specimen of malachite that has completely replaced azurite former crystals, preserving its prismatic shape, with visible terminal faces. Malachite has an intense green color, with silky luster due to its acicular shape, fibrous. With a minor rocky matrix. An elegant specimen of a classic mine as Touissit.

Excellent gemmy anglesite specimen that shows a rich group of crystals with a  razor-sharp chisel terminations, striated faces characteristic of the species, very sharp and with good transparency and uniform toasted honey color.
