MG46AJ4: Very aerial group of Pyromorphite crystals with very nice curvatures that give them a barrel, almost spherical, shape. Their reddish orange color and luster are excellent. Although it has been reported that these globular orange crystals from Bunker Hill are arsenic-rich Pyromorphite specimens, we analyzed some samples and the results are that they really are pure Pyromorphite, with no arsenic. The sample is from the Thomas P. Moore collection whose label we will send to the buyer.

Specimen size: 3 × 2 × 2.2 cm = 1.18” × 0.79” × 0.87”
