GS - 6    Silver - No. 1 Level, Eleura Mine, Cobar, New South Wales, Australia;    This is the only blocky crystal type silver that I've had from this mine.   All of the others have had elongated spinel-law twinned crystals.   This one appealed to me because of the branching crystals and the overall aesthetics.   The camera makes this look a lot brighter than it actually is.   It's darker than the photos show, having the usual silver patina.    Size: 3 x 1.7 x 1.2    Reserved
