Galena and Dolomite Buick Mine, Viburnum Trend District, “Big Bear Trend”, Iron County, Missouri.
You may have seen these in larger sizes with the other big dealers (at big prices) and noted their uniqueness. Many are spinel law twins and even more interesting, many are bar shaped crystals instead of the traditional cubes. All of the ones I am offering are floaters and damage free, unless otherwise stated. I have a fine group of well-priced thumbnail sized specimens here for your consideration.
