Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Willemite, Franklinite, Rhodonite
Locality: Sterling Mine, Sterling Hill, Ogdensburg, Franklin Mining District, Sussex County, New Jersey, USA (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 16.4 x 10.0 x 8.4 cm.
At 1600 grams, this is a fairly good-sized, impressively hefty specimen. This piece features fat willemite crystals to 7 cm tall, with a few franklinites perched upon them. They are ensconced in calcite (fluorescent red) and rhodonite matrix. The specimen was long on display in the Paterson Museum, which only let it trade out as part of an exchange for some extremely rare and valuable New Jersey specimens from the 1800s...or this never would have left the museum. A superb specimen. Ex. George Elling Collection.
