FROM MY PRIVATE COLLECTION
This specimen of Famatinite is one the ten best Famatinite specimens found
in a one-time find at the Quiruvilca Mine, Peru.
It was in my private collection for the last 10 years and is from the collection
of Georg Gebhard, who was the co-author of "Die Weltbesten Kristalle von
Famatinit und Luzonit," 1998 in Lapis, vol. 23, No. 9, pp. 35-37. The
title of the article translates as, "The World's Finest Crystals of Famatinite
and Luzonite." This article documents the find and describes the exceptional
quality of the Famatinite specimens. |
