Cerussite specimens

Cerussite specimens

Small specimens of Cerussite, typically those with little provenance. These make good reference specimens at a budget price point.

Cerussite is typically a white crystalline mineral with varied crystal formations. It is often fluorescent, typically a yellow-white under 365nm.

Sometimes when I buy older collections, I get unlabelled or poorly labelled specimens - too good to clear in bulk, but good enough to sell at the lower end of the pricing scale.

• #1 - fluorescent
• #2 - non fluorescent, stained by linarite
• #3 - bright yellow fluorescence under 365nm. Interesting light blue crystallisation around the cerussite, unknown mineral though.
• #4 - non fluorescent, stained by linarite

Cerussite contains lead and should be handled with care.
