Barahonaite-(Al) / Incredibly Rare Mineral Specimen / 80\' Adit, Gold Hill Mine,:
$51.99

Gorgeous blue Barahoniaite-(Al) on Matrix. Incredibly rare Utah mineral.

This was an unknown blue mineral from Gold Hill for the past 30 years. The Delores Prospect, Murcia, Spain and Gold Hill, Tooele County, Utah are the only known locations.

A few months prior to Gold Hill being permanently closed and sealed with heavy iron jail like bars, an area in the mine bearing the rare mineral was located and several flats were collected. Otherwise only a handful of specimens would ever have been available from Gold Hill. Still with the location being permanently closed to any further collecting, quantities are extremely limited compared to most mineral locations.
