Ex. Jack Nieburger Collection
Beautiful, rich specimen of electric green cuprosklodowskite needles on matrix from the famous Musonoi mine in the DR Congo. Really a handsome specimen from this iconic locality, and HOT as well, measuring ~150,000 CPM on my Ludlum Model 3 counter with the 44-9 probe. Cuprosklodowskite specimens like this are very tough to get these days, especially for reasonable prices. Better in person! From the noted collection of Jack Nieburger.
