AKS9 Wulfenite
Kurukang Mountains, Near Urumqi Xinjiang Region, Northern China
19.4x 11.1x 4.1 cm
$3500

A very large specimen from the one time Chinese find made a few years ago.

While the color on this piece is not the brightest red from the find, it more than compensates with its size, lack of damage, and the size of the crystals. Virtually all of these specimens have significant damage, but this one is surprisingly clean, probably because the crystals seem to be somewhat thicker. Also unlike many other pieces, this one has a hard rock matrix, not the gossan usually encountered

This find represents what is probably the most significant find of wulfenite since Wayne Thompson"s San Francisco Mine find in the mid-90"s.
