Here is a impressive Mexican Sphalerite where the gem rough was mined from the Chihuahua State of Mexico! This beautiful gem has an intense golden yellow color( w/orange flashes), great luster, and a exceptional face up appearance & a very gemmy eye appeal. ((Sphalerite, also called Blende, is a rare collector's gem whose claim to fame is its exceptional dispersion or fire. In fact, its dispersion rating is three times as high as that of a diamond. Sphalerite is a zinc sulphide and is best known in the mineral world as the chief ore of zinc. Most sphalerite contains iron and when the iron content is high it is an opaque black. The rare gem-quality crystals have a very low iron content and considerable transparency. They are typically a yellowish to honey brown, red to orange, or green. The reds and oranges being sought after & valued the most.)) This would make an excellent addition to a investment collection. GUARANTEED WORTH THE TIME AND MONEY!!.
