Joplin Field, Tri State District, Jasper County, Missouri, United States
118mm x 77mm x 58mm
minID: 7TC-9PC
A fine piece from an American classic locality, the Tristate Joplin area. This was once a great producer of good minerals, it is now long gone and high quality pieces have become very scarce. This esthetic and unusually colorful piece has a 6 CM twinned butterscotch Calcite contrasting with ruby-red Sphalerites. In great condition, 1940s vintage specimen this is piece would have been far better than average back when these were plentiful. Today this quality is almost never seen.From: Well-Arranged Molecules
