Brilliant blue linarite crystals aesthetically line a well-placed, 2.1 x 2.0 cm vug in cabinet rhyolite on this excellent and showy specimen from the Grand Reef Mine of Arizona. This piece is notable, in that the crystals are fairly large for the locality, up to 1.1 cm. Highly desirable, older material, seldom seen on the market.
