Amazonite (Microcline) (Ref: 15.1-615)
Bear Creek Canyon, Colorado Springs area, Colorado, United States
43mm x 32mm x 31mm
minID: ED4-064
A nice, colorful Amazonite crystal collected by the late Dr. Warren Johansson in 1945 just prior to his induction in the US Army. He had treated himself to a solo mineral collecting tour of the US Western regions while awaiting being shipped out overseas. He wrote a nice memoir about that adventure some 65 years later. The color is a little richer than most seen from this locality, the condition is quite good, there are several clean contacts but there is no damage or bruising. A classic US specie from Colorado, with some extra provenance. From: Well-Arranged Molecules
