NAC43XXX: Anglesite on Galena

Anglesite crystals on a Galena matrix from Shaft 5 of the La Cruz vein, one of the classic finds from the Linares mining district. The specimen is notable for its excellent luster and the abundance of well-developed crystals lining a small cavity in the Galena. Specimens of this type are no longer found on the market, except for those originating from old discoveries such as this one, made by Antonio Álvarez around 1990. Geologically, Anglesite is a secondary mineral formed by the alteration of Galena within the oxidation zone of the deposit. In the Linares-La Carolina mining district, hydrothermal lead veins hosted by Paleozoic rocks gave rise to some of the finest associations of secondary lead minerals found in Spain.
La Cruz mining group, La Cruz vein, shaft 5, Linares, Comarca Sierra Morena, Jaén, Andalusia Spain (±1990)
Specimen size: 7.7 × 6.5 × 5.1 cm = 3.03” × 2.56” × 2.01”

TC380ET: Anglesite on Galena

Very well-defined Anglesite crystals, transparent, lustrous, and on a Galena matrix. Without any damage, which, for the locality, is really uncommon given the extraction difficulties in the times when the mines were working. The name Touissit refers to what was a historic mining operation that produced azurites, malachites, cerussites, vanadinites, wulfenites, argentiferous galenas, sphalerites, and other lead, arsenic, and zinc minerals highly valued by collectors. It is located in the Touissit-Bou Beker mining district, one of the most important lead-zinc areas in Morocco, with Mississippi Valley-type (MVT) mineralization that replaces carbonate dolomites.

JFD250AQ1: Anglesite with Galena

This is the last piece of my collection that I propose for sale to the public, since this is the end of the journey for Fabre Minerals. That is why I wanted piece no. 250 of my collection to be a special piece, of great quality, and what could be more special than one of the legendary anglesites from Touissit, undoubtedly the best in the world. This one has superb color, the crystal is large and it is in very good condition, as are all the smaller crystals around it. As the crystal is so centered in its Galena matrix you have to display it by turning the piece a little so that it can be seen better and you can appreciate its exceptional luster and the darker colored interior inclusions. I am aware that I am describing it in a very superlative way, but, what can I do, it is the last piece of my collection that I am offering and I have tried to make this farewell piece a really special piece.
