BROCHANTITE, FLUORITE, CALCITE MIXED SPECIMEN
ALL PHOTOS AND VIDEO WERE TAKEN IN NATURAL DAYLIGHT
MUCH MORE IMPRESSIVE THAN THE PHOTOS REVEAL
ORIGIN : LAVRIO MINES, ATTICA, GREECE
Here is a delightful example of
well formed light purple Fluorite, brown Calcite and deep emereald green Brochantite crystals from the Lavrion mines in Greece. Brochantite is a rare copper sulfate mineral that is formed during the oxidization of copper veins and it was named in 1824 by Serve-Dieu Abailard "Armand" Lévy in honor of the French geologist and mineralogist, André-Jean-François-Marie Brochant de Villiers. Specimen looks
wonderful under magnification, enjoy viewing the micro Brochantite. Although crystals are obvious to
the naked eye, specimen requires
magnification in order to fully enjoy the crystal structures and color.
Will be a delightful addition to any rock and mineral collection.
Here is the opportunity to add this delightful specimen from a classic, ancient locality to your
collection, do not miss this opportunity.
MINERAL SPECIMEN COMES FROM THE FAMOUS ANCIENT LAVRIO MINES. MOST OF THESE MINES ARE 2500 YEARS OLD AND HAVE A TOTAL LENGTH OF 50 KILOMETRES AND WERE BUILT ON SIX UNDERGROUND LEVELS. THE ENTIRE MINING SITE OF LAVRIO CONSTITUTES A NATURAL MUSUEM SINCE MORE THAN 400 MINERAL SPECIES CAN BE FOUND IN THE REGION. MOST OF THESE MINERALS ARE FOUND IN PRIVATE COLLECTIONS. LAVRIO HAS AROUSED THE INTEREST OF A LARGE NUMBER OF MINERALOGISTS AND AMATEUR COLLECTORS OWING TO BOTH THE VARIETY AND PARTICULAR BEAUTY OF ITS MINERAL SAMPLES. THE STORY OF HOW MINING BEGAN IN LAVRIO IS LOST IN THE MISTS OF EARLY HISTORY. MANY ANCIENT WRITERS AND ORATORS MENTION LAVRIO, INCLUDING AESCHYLUS, ARISTOTLE, DEMOSTHENES, LYSIAS, ARISTOPHANES AND STRABO. ACCORDING TO ARISTOTLE, IT WAS IN 483BC, WHEN THE RICH DEPOSITS OF MARONIA (PRESENT DAY KAMAREZA) WERE DISCOVERED.

Waarom overbieden gebruikers zichzelf?
Wanneer er wordt geboden, is dit het maximale bedrag dat een gebruiker bereid is te bieden op het product. Ons systeem zal dan automatisch namens die gebruiker bieden, waarbij het bod stapsgewijs wordt verhoogd om hun positie als hoogste bieder te behouden, tot aan het opgegeven maximum.
Als er een pictogram is dat 'Automatisch bieden' aangeeft, betekent dit dat ons systeem actief biedingen plaatst voor de gebruiker op basis van hun maximumbod. Dit kan lijken alsof gebruikers zichzelf overbieden, maar het is gewoon het gevolg van het feit dat het systeem het bod bijwerkt om de maximumlimiet van de gebruiker weer te geven.
