TFH94AP5: Silver with Safflorite and Löllingite
Very aerial arborescent growth of Silver, with good luster and sharp crystal forms, associated with small crystals of Safflorite with blackish tones and Löllingite, on a matrix of Calcite. Very elegant and of great quality. This specimen, from a very recent find last year, has been analyzed and we will send a copy of the analysis to the buyer.
Bouismas Mine, Agdz, Bou Azzer mining district, Zagora Province, Drâa-Tafilalet Region  Morocco (2022)

THF70AN4: Silver with Silver (variety amalgamate - Hg-bearing), Löllingite and Calcite
New discovery post-Easter 2021: A curiosity within this find was this first generation of cubic Silver crystals with extraordinarily well defined and very lustrous faces and edges, and a second generation of small growths, not very sharp, yellowish and with rougher surfaces, but which are also native Silver, although rich in mercury, partially covering the crystals of the first generation. The whole sits on a Löllingite matrix, with remnants of acid-etched Calcite. All the components of the specimen have been analyzed and we will send a copy of the analyses to the buyer.

TCX89AO0: Silver with Silver (variety amalgamate), Löllingite and Calcite
Very aerial growth of a first generation of cubic Silver crystals with extraordinarily well defined faces and edges, and a second generation that partially covers the crystals of the first with small, poorly defined, yellowish growths with rougher surfaces, also Silver, but a variety rich in mercury.
