An excellent selection of rare purpurite specimens which have cryptocrystalline exposures in a massive matrix deposit. Purpurite doesn't form crystals but rather occurs as a beautiful metallic chatoyancy in veins along fracture plains of the host rock. Purpurite is a manganese iron phosphate mineral.
