Hutchinsonite with Barite (Ref: 22.1-384)
Quiruvilca Mine, Santiago de Chuco Province, La Libertad Department, Peru
90mm x 72mm x 35mm
This rare Thallium specie is almost unheard of in displayable cabinet sided specimens. This is a fine example from an old find at Quiruvilca, with crystals up to 3mm on a huge, (for the specie), Barite matrix. The Barite color and the matrix is a reddish violet, perhaps caused by Realgar and overall there is great luster. It is rare to find a displayable example of this substantial size, it is the largest we have ever seen. Thallium as a dominant element in minerals is not at all common, the crystals of Hutchinsonite are scattered as individuals and sprays most of which are in good condition when magnified but there are some broken zones which is typical of this very fragile mineral.
