21PRX61: Silver (variety kongsbergite)

In the classic Las Herrerías Mine, works done in 1999 has revealed new Silvers in the zone of secondary enrichment, quite similar to those found many years ago in that mine and which are represented in the world's most important museums. The new pieces have a very high content (±10%) of Mercury. In addition, when analyzing them, we saw that they had a large amount of Chlorargyrite scattered throughout. As always, we will send a copy of these analyses to whoever buys the piece. This particular specimen is very solid, unlike the more 'fluffy' classical pieces, and exhibits very aerial growths.

JFD135AO5: Silver (variety kongsbergite)

With a bad reputation for containing a lot of mercury (kongsbergite variety), if carefully protected from light they do not turn black and they retain that slightly reddish tone so characteristic of Imiter. With some matrix, very good size and that arborescent appearance, it is still a remarkable specimen despite the 32 years that have passed since it was found and I bought it.
Imiter Mine, Jebel Saghro, Imiter District, Tinghir Province, Drâa-Tafilalet Region Morocco (1990)
Specimen size: 13.3 × 9.5 × 2.9 cm = 5.24” × 3.74” × 1.14”
Price: €1700 / US$1810 / ¥277370 / AUD$2790

NA68E1: Silver (variety kongsbergite)

In the classic mine of Las Herrerias recent activity has exposed an enriched zone where Silver was then found. These are similar to the samples found years ago, which are present in many of the most important museums worldwide. The latest specimens have a high (±10%) content of Mercury and some of them are on a matrix of red Jasper. Analysis has shown that they have a large amount of Chlorargyrite throughout the specimen. As is normal we will send the person that buys this one a copy of the analysis. This one is one of the best that they found, and it is very solid. So overall an outstanding specimen from the find.
