JFD94AO1: Erythrite with Calcite

For many years the best Erythrite in my collection. Although the color of the Erythrite is so attractive, it has never been easy to obtain attractive collection specimens since it is difficult to find pieces with well-developed crystals and well-arranged on the matrix. It has accompanied me since 1988 when I got it, and I hope it finds a place where its new owner appreciates it as much as I have until now.

EE68AB9: Erythrite with Phlogopite

A novelty at Ste. Marie 2015, a new worldwide locality for fine Erythrite! Although it looks very similar to the famous Bou Azzer ones, the deposit of this specimen is located about 500 Km. from the Bou Azzer Mine and in a different geological environment. As far as we know these Erythrites were not known before and they come not from the Tazalarht quarries but in a new shaft/prospect located very close to the Tazalarht quarries. Related species are Quartz, Phlogopite (analyzed) and a mix of Chalcocite-Djurleite-Digenite in the matrix.

SV3490TBF: Erythrite with Quartz

It is not easy to find an Erythrite in good condition. Old or very old pieces are sometimes more competitive than modern ones, although their color can also be darker. This old piece embodies many qualities such as perfection and the abundance of crystals, and those small sharp Quartz crystals are a big help.
Bou Azzer Mines, Bou Azzer mining district, Ouarzazate Province, Drâa-Tafilalet Region Morocco
Specimen size: 5.2 × 4.1 × 3.7 cm = 2.05” × 1.61” × 1.46”

TPQ74CD3: Erythrite with Quartz

Radiating groups of Erythrite crystals forming a very aesthetic complete rosette, with intense and deep color in clear contrast with the light-colored matrix partially covered by Quartz crystals. A very unique specimen, difficult to achieve for its perfection, the quantity and quality of its crystals, which in this species are usually somewhat erratic.

Specimen size: 4.9 × 2.9 × 3.2 cm = 1.93” × 1.14” × 1.26”

TA98AL5: Erythrite with Quartz

Centered aggregate of acicular Erythrite crystals, with the habit, brilliance and presentation that have made the Schneeberg Erythrites famous. This is the type locality for the species. The specimen, apart from being classic and very aesthetic, also has a long pedigree documented in its accompanying label record which we will send to the buyer.
Schneeberg District, Erzgebirgskreis, Saxony/Sachsen Germany
Specimen size: 9.2 × 5.7 × 5.3 cm = 3.62” × 2.24” × 2.09”
