Pearceite with Red Highlights
Collection
Robert Lavinsky
Description
Beautiful lustrous blades of a Pearceite, a rare silver species far more uncommon than its cousin, Polybasite. This is a superb thumbnail for what it is, and an excellent representative of a very rare silver-bearing species as well. You can see the gemmy, ruby-silver highlights in the photos. Ex.
