Wulfenite, Plattnerite and Hydrozincite crystals from the Silver Bill Mine, Gleeson, AZ, USA. 1 unique flat for mineral collectors.
This unique flat comes from the renowned Silver Bill Mine near Gleeson, Arizona, USA, and features a striking combination of Wulfenite, Plattnerite, and Hydrozincite crystals.
