Pyromorphite


Pyromorphite : Pb5[Cl|(PO4)3]

Photo Copyright © Russell G. Rizzo & Cal Neva Mineral Company  - This image is copyrighted. Unauthorized reproduction prohibited.
Locality: Society Girl Mine, Moyie, Fort Steele Mining Division, British Columbia, Canada
This multi-colored Pyromorphite is a rare locality piece from our neighbors to the north. Only a few Canadian locations have ever produced any Pyromorphite crystals of note, the Society Girl Mine being the most famous. This well formed crystal is an excellent example from a country not known for its Pyromorphite specimens.
specimen size = 2.1 x 1 x 1 cm.
