The scale under the specimen is an inch with a rule at one cm." - Rock H. Currier This specimen is another result of Bob's extensive amount of research and investigation of the various mines of the West. Do you have a Wulfenite from here? Chances are, you don't. Bob did. What's more, he got it while collecting "solo" - to a field collector, you can't beat the rush of finding a "good" one, and it's the reason for the hunt in the first place.
