Description

Blaubleierz (blue lead ore) is the old German name in mining slang for pseudomorphs of Galena after Pyromorphite. Such pieces primarily came from Germany, from the world-famous Kautenbach mine near Bernkastel-Kues in the Moselle valley. This specimen is an excellent example of a classic old German mineral, where Ghe galena has completely replaced the Pyromorphite. Some specimens show only partial replacement, but this one is complete. It is remarkably aesthetic and presents well with a three-dimensional representation. These are all old specimens from the 1860s and almost all come from a single pocket. This excellent specimen comes from the collection of Bernhard Dünkel and comes with a high-quality acrylic custom base.
