Classic Minerals From Hiddenite
Ellis Mine
6" x 8" Riker mount
An interesting, historic collection of 13 different minerals of many forms and shapes. These are from the closed North Carolina Ellis Emerald Mine in Hiddenite, Alexander County. These were collected by Ray Benfield in the 1960's. Ray was a regular and diligent collector and amassed a nice assortment of available material. I acquired the remainder of the collection in 2006. Includes Limonite, emerals, rutile, muscovite, feldspar, amethyst, quartz, epidote, tourmaline. Impossible to find a represenative set from this locality
