Description/Interesting Notes: A large example of this very rare and highly sought after mineral from Mexico!!! This specimen consists of a large crystal of cumengeite that exhibits characteristic sixling twinning - with acute pyramidal terminations jutting out from each face of an underlying cubic... form (upon close study there is some boleite in minor association as well)!!! Although the crystal is incomplete on the reverse, it still displays magnificently in person and exhibits impressive size for this highly prized rarity!!! Each side of the crystal exhibits multiple, intergrown pyramidal forms with deep blue color and marked luster!!! This specimen is from the collection of the famed Rock Currier and retains its original label as well!!! A portion of the Currier collection was offered in Tucson for the first time and I was literally the first in line (woke up at 5am!) - although just a small fraction of the collection was available I was able to snatch up a handful of exciting specimens - don't miss out!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
