A plate from a fissure of microcrystals with skeletal forms, on matrix. The piece is from an old find in Imiter, probably around de decade of the 90’ts and unusual as the habitual it has a crystalline aspect. Imiter, Anti-Atlas Morocco (±1990) Specimen size: 4.2 × 4 × 4.6 cm = 1.7” × 1.6” × 1.8” Main crystal size: 3.2 × 2.6 cm = 1.3” × 1.0”in Silver

A scultural growth, very aerial and esthetic, of microcrystals with skeletal forms, on matrix. The piece is from an old find in Imiter, probably around the decade of the 90’s and unusual as the habitual has a crystalline aspect. Imiter, Anti-Atlas Morocco (±1990) Specimen size: 6.8 × 5.5 × 2.9 cm = 2.7” × 2.2” × 1.1” Main crystal size: 3.7 × 2.2 cm = 1.5” × 0.9”in Silver

Fissure plate of micro-crystals on matrix. The sample is from an old find at Imiter, probably around the 1990'ts. Its luster and fresh aspect suggest that it has no mercury and it is native Silver and not the variety kongsbergite, very common at this locality. Imiter, Anti-Atlas Morocco (±1990) Specimen size: 9.6 × 3.9 × 5.2 cm = 3.8” × 1.5” × 2.0”in Silver

From an exceptional find in 2010 that provided excellent samples of Silver with Actinolite. In this case it is an aggregate of thick and elongated Silver crystals with very well defined faces and edges that are on a matrix of fibrous Actinolite. The Actinolite has been analyzed and we’ll send a copy of the analysis to the buyer. Bouismas Mine, Bou Azzer area, Tazenakht, Ouarzazate Morocco (2010) Specimen size: 4.7 × 3.1 × 2.3 cm = 1.9” × 1.2” × 0.9” Main crystal size: 1.1 × 0.4 cm = 0.4” × 0.2”in Silver

Very aerial laminar growth with fresh, very well marked crystalline surfaces. It is on a rocky matrix, with cleaved Calcite. Its excellent condition of conservation in spite of the long time since it was mined suggests it hasn't embedded or interstitial mercury. It is not, then, the variety kongsbergite, the more typical Silver at this locality. Imiter, Anti-Atlas Morocco (±1990) Specimen size: 13.5 × 7.3 × 7 cm = 5.3” × 2.9” × 2.8” Main crystal size: 8.1 × 3.7 cm = 3.2” × 1.5”in Silver
