Description
The Provenance & Story Extracted from deep within the dangerous, ancient geothermal plumbing system of a historic supervolcano in the Mojave Desert, Nevada, this raw mineral specimen is a stunning monument to volcanic power. Billions of years ago, super-heated, silica-rich mineral fluids pulsed through unstable fracture zones. As these subterranean channels slowly cooled, they left behind spectacular crystallized veins. This piece was pulled directly from those deep veins by a geologist and a specialized expedition team. Completely uncut, un-sculpted, and left entirely raw, its natural shape is pure geologic history. It has been carefully washed and lightly hand-buffed with fine mineral oil to organically emphasize its smooth layers, rich depth, and deep waxy luster. Weighing in at over 158 grams, this large specimen makes an imposing, high-end display piece for an office desk, a home gallery, or a premium gift of natural history. Dual-Spectrum UV Performance • Daylight View: A gorgeous, heavy cluster of semi-translucent, pale grey-lavender botryoidal bubbles with deep natural geometry. • Blacklight View: Spectacular multi-mineral fluorescence. The main chalcedony formations radiate a rich, ghostly neon cream-green glow, while the underlying internal matrix contrasts beautifully with deep magentas and neon pinks. Specimen Specifications • Weight: 158.04 Grams + (Exceeds maximum capacity of standard 150g pocket scales) • Form: Raw, All-Natural Node Specimen • Origin: Underground Vein Matrix, Mojave Desert Region, Southern Nevada Note for Lapidaries & Gem Cutters: This raw specimen features excellent internal translucency and is well-suited for fashioning unique custom jewelry, slabs, or high-carat cabochons. Please note that the piece has been lightly finished with fine mineral oil to preserve and protect its natural luster; simply wash thoroughly with mild dish soap and warm water prior to cutting or grinding wheels.
