JRB14 Jeromite on Quartz
Kami Mine, Ayopaya Prov., Cochabamba Dept., Bolivia
15.5x 8.0x 9.5 cm
$585

A very rich example of jeromite on quartz.  The "jeromite" is not actually a mineral-- it is an arsenic, selenium, sulfur glass that lacks a definite crystal structure (hence the "glass" term) best known from this mine.  In the past, I have seem small single quartz crystals coated with this orange-red material, but this discovery is the first time that I have seen such rich examples.
All of these have at least some quartz crystals broken off, it is inescapable, though they display exactly as shown.
