Formula
KAlSi3O8
Liebigite Locality: Schwartzwalder Mine (Ralston Creek Mine), Ralston Buttes District, Jefferson County, Colorado, USA (Locality at mindat.org) Size: 6.4 x 4.9 x 2.6 cm. A very rare example of this fantastically beautiful mineral, one of the few species that forms the purest yellow crystals. The crystals here reach over 1 cm and are clustered nicely in the middle of the specimen. An American classic, it should be - but it’s so rare, that few know of it these days! Mineral

Limousinite

limousinite
The blue mineral is linarite, PbCuSO4(OH)2, and the green is mostly malachite, Cu2(CO3)(OH)2. Minor greenish-gray cerussite, PbCO3, appears on the left edge. Deep red-brown cuprite, CuO, forms several small patches. Orangish quartz is on the top edge. This sample is typical of oxidized (altered) zones of copper-lead ore deposits. Many spectacular minerals come from such environments, but the many blue and green secondary copper minerals can be hard to tell apart. This specimen is 5 cm across. Mineral
