Baryte, Quartz, Murray Mine, Elko County, Nevada, USA
Size: 9.9x7.1x3.5 cm
Species: Baryte, Quartz
Locality: Murray Mine, Elko County, Nevada, USA
Description: A great example of the “Sugar Bowl Pocket” find at the Murray Mine. This material was nicknamed the “sugar bowl” due to the druzy quartz coating the blocky baryte crystals. This piece is in great condition, I only note some minor damage to a few spots of the quartz coating. There is a small spray of stibnite on the back and bottom as well. This specimen is from the personal collection of Casey Jones who held the commercial specimen collecting contract for the Murray Mine when this find was made.
