Laminar growths of native Silver on matrix. This sample, a magnificent Moroccan classic, is preserved in mint condition in spite of the many years since its extraction, due to it’s not being combined with native Mercury (Kongsbergite), unlike what happens with the majority of the samples from Imiter.
Imiter Mine, Jebel Saghro, Imiter District, Tinghir Province, Drâa-Tafilalet Region Morocco (±1990)
Specimen size: 14.5 × 10 × 5.3 cm = 5.71” × 3.94” × 2.09”
Price: [SOLD]

TP87Z3: Silver

Aggregates of very elongated Silver crystals with very notable wire growths and with aggregates of small, very bright Quartz crystals. A great sample of a great European classic.
Kongsberg mining district, Kongsberg Norway
Specimen size: 4 × 4 × 2.8 cm = 1.57” × 1.57” × 1.10”

Main crystal size: 1.7 × 0.3 cm = 0.67” × 0.12”
Price: [SOLD]

EX67I1: Silver

A great classic. The specimen is splendid, very esthetic and on matrix, with elongated crystals having acute terminations and well-defined faces (a rare feature with Silver specimens), and arborescent growths. Some very small green Sphalerite crystals appear on the tops of some of the Silver crystals.
Kongsberg mining district, Kongsberg Norway
Specimen size: 6.9 × 5.5 × 1.3 cm = 2.72” × 2.17” × 0.51”
Price: [SOLD]

NF59H1: Silver

The growth is laminar which is uncommon in the samples from Falset. Another aspect to distinguish the specimen is that it hasn’t been etched out with acid because the Silver is found in fissures and is not included in Calcite.
Balcoll Mine, Shaft 2, Falset, Comarca Priorat, Tarragona, Catalonia / Catalunya Spain (10/2004)
Specimen size: 2.5 × 2.2 × 1 cm = 0.98” × 0.87” × 0.39”
Price: [SOLD]

TB14J3: Silver

Hooked and skeletal growths on matrix. We note that from this locality, and very similar in their aspect, there are samples named as Allargentum (Ag7Sb). We analyzed the specimen and, in this case, it is simply native Silver.
Shaft 371, 1410 level, Schlema-Hartenstein District, Erzgebirgskreis, Saxony/Sachsen Germany
Specimen size: 4.7 × 3.2 × 1.8 cm = 1.85” × 1.26” × 0.71”
Price: [SOLD]

AC16P4: Silver

Arborescent growth, very esthetic, of thin, elongated crystals with well defined faces and edges. We also note the locality, an American classic for Silver.
White Pine Mine, White Pine, Ontonagon County, Michigan USA
Specimen size: 3.3 × 1.6 × 0.8 cm = 1.30” × 0.63” × 0.31”
Price: [SOLD]

Arborescent growth that, from the base to the upper zone, developed progressively taller crystals that have better developed crystalline forms. A good sample.
Wolverine Mine, Wolverine, Houghton County, Michigan USA
Specimen size: 4 × 3.7 × 1.8 cm = 1.57” × 1.46” × 0.71”
Price: [SOLD]

TZ26F3: Silver (spinel twin)

This is a really great sample, very esthetic, with the branches of the Silver very aerial, and clearly showing the Spinel twinning. This form is not that uncommon in the silvers from Mexico, but it is not normally this obvious. So, as we said, a great one.
The specimen has been reviewed, photographed and published in the magazine ‘Rivista Mineralogica Italiana’ on page 245 in number 2005/4.
San Antonio Mine, Cerro de las Animas, Todos Santos-Roncevalles, Batopilas, Andrés del Río District, Municipio Batopilas, Chihuahua Mexico

Main crystal size: 4.8 × 0.7 cm = 1.89” × 0.28”
Price: [SOLD]

SV2440NJE: Silver (spinel twin) with Acanthite

Doubly terminated, sharp floater crystal of Silver, with a very visible spinel-law twin, skeletal growths, very sharp and profiled, accompanied by groups of isolated Acanthite crystals, one of them dominant. The specimen, whose locality of origin is a classic for silver minerals, comes from the collection of Ignacio Gaspar Sintes whose handwritten label we will send to the purchaser.
Batopilas, Andrés del Río District, Municipio Batopilas, Chihuahua Mexico
Specimen size: 3.3 × 0.8 × 0.7 cm = 1.30” × 0.31” × 0.28”
Price: €440 / US$468 / ¥71790 / AUD$720

CTT63AP7: Silver (variety 'sponge')

Spongy aggregate of very elongated lamellar Silver crystals. This kind of specimen was very typical in the small veins of the mine, a historic Spanish mining locality, where they were called 'sponges' because of their peculiar appearance. The specimen comes from the Carles Curto collection's duplicates (number 1971.42), whose label and digital file we will send to the buyer.
Santa Matilde cut, Berja mining group, Las Herrerías, Almagrera Range, Cuevas del Almanzora, Comarca Levante Almeriense, Almería, Andalusia Spain
Specimen size: 2.8 × 1.4 × 1.2 cm = 1.10” × 0.55” × 0.47”
Price: [SOLD]

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.
Santa Matilde cut, Berja mining group, Las Herrerías, Almagrera Range, Cuevas del Almanzora, Comarca Levante Almeriense, Almería, Andalusia Spain (08/1999)
Specimen size: 2.5 × 2.2 × 1.1 cm = 0.98” × 0.87” × 0.43”
Price: [SOLD]

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.
Santa Matilde cut, Berja mining group, Las Herrerías, Almagrera Range, Cuevas del Almanzora, Comarca Levante Almeriense, Almería, Andalusia Spain (08/99)
Specimen size: 5 × 5 × 1.5 cm = 1.97” × 1.97” × 0.59”
Price: [SOLD]

Price: [SOLD]

AX92M5: Silver after Dyscrasite

A very unusual growth of native Silver that has replaced completely, pseudomorphing them, the original crystals of Dyscrasite that formed the group. Exceptional by its rarity.
The specimen has been photographed and published in the magazine ‘Mineral Up’ on page 33 in number 2009/1.

TQ6AN1: Silver and Copper (variety halfbreed)
