Danburite
Specimen #Mex10
7.5 x 3.2 x 2.0cm
Small Cabinet
Charcas, San Luis Potosi, Mexico
$20
This species got its name from Danbury, Connecticut which is now an
extinct locality, as it’s buried under the city. The finest of these
specimens come from Charcas and this is one of them. This crystal is
doubly terminated and I can’t find a point of contact, making it a
floater. There are two small clusters of calcite attached to one
termination. This specimen is clear to faintly pink, with nice sharp
terminations. Although the specimen shows some internal fracturing, it
has some very nice gemmy sections to it.
