Another cab from the material I bought from Chris Corbett who's Father was the original owner of the Prince Mine. I managed to snag 6 pounds of this material, mostly nuggets, and have been amazed at the variations in color and pattern!

Varascite is at the top of my list for liking, your cab is on top of that list.

Beautiful stuff, do you have a black light? unfortunately, I do not. You think it might fluoresce?

I think i posted this pic some time ago in a different thread, but since you all are a glutton for punishment, here you go. All of these are from the same 6 pound lot if you can believe that! It just shows how highly variable this material can be. Of course this was dug over several years and likely got mixed a good bit before it got to me.

I have always preferred variscite over turquoise. Your pictures remind me of why. Very nice!

That is some very pretty stuff! Your cabs certainly show off the varieties of colors it may show. Thanks for sharing just another kind of rock I have never seen before.
