Mineral: Cerussite

Locality: Mammoth-Saint Anthony Mine, Tiger, Pinal County, Arizona, USA

Description: This is a lovely cluster of pearly cream colored V twin cerussites forming an excellent quality miniature specimen. The Tiger mine has produced a number of specimens and oddities that are highly coveted by collectors from around the world. Sadly the mine is now totally obliterated and these specimens are the only ones that will ever be recovered. “After the San Manuel Copper Company acquired the land, they demolished all remaining structures in order to mine the silica on site for its gold content and as flux material for the San Manuel Smelter. However, the material contained too much lead, and the plan proved fruitless. As such, nothing is left of the town of Tiger today, but the filled-in shaft of the Mammoth mine in the middle of town.” From Wikipedia
