Description
A striking, old-time specimen of vugs loaded with tiny, emerald-green Dioptase needles, some on acicular white Willemite, in matrix, which includes lustrous, embedded, orange-yellow Wulfenite crystals to 7 mm. Dioptase from the famous Mammoth-Saint Anthony Mine at Tiger is some of the most sought-after material from Arizona. The mine closed in 1953 and consequently this kind of material is practically not offered for sale on the mineral market.
