Description: VANADINITE CRYSTALS - 2.3 cm - OLD YUMA MINE, ARIZONA 28362 VANADINITE CRYSTALS - 2.3 cm - OLD YUMA MINE, ARIZONA This is a good miniature specimen from this old time location. The abandoned workings at the Old Yuma were like a training ground for many of Arizona's premier mineralogists and collectors a number of decades ago. Being too close to the suburban expansion of Tucson, the mine was reclaimed years ago. This specimen features a group of terminated red crystals of vanadinite on matrix. The crystals are well formed hexagonals that have some calcite overgrowth. The Mineralogical Record Vol. 14, No. 2 (1983) has a great article on this mine. (and some super wulfenite photos.)
