Excellent coverage of sparkling orange Vanadinite crystals from Arizona. From MINDAT 'In the Santa Ritas, near Patagonia, J. C. Holmes has a valuable showing of vanadium minerals on several mining claims. Both vanadinite and descloizite occur with wulfenite and lead carbonate in porphyry country rock, as well as in fracture planes in the quartz vein filling.' Uncommonly colored Vanadinite from an obscure locality. Undamaged and showy, valued at $200.
