bigrex 60 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 (edited) Thought some of you guys might appreciate this presentation about the mines that produced wulfenite in Arizona. He goes through quite a few mines across the state, and shows all sorts of specimen examples as well as some photos of the mines.

Morlock 1,771 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Thanks for the link. Wullfenite is one of my favorite minerals. I visited the Red Cloud mine many years ago. At the time, the mine was undergoing a major operation to get into the guts to extract the specimens. From what I was told, it would never produce specimens again. I don't know if this is true or not since I haven't been back there since. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

adam 3,137 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Hi Rex, Great video ....I have been fortunate enough to have collected at several of those locations. Yet, for some reason I do not have hardly any Wulfenites in my collection. A lot of them have long since broken over the years unfortunately 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
