PRINCE
The Prince Mine is located in Mineral County, Nevada near the Candelaria Mining District. This area is famous for its silver and turquoise. The mine produced large veins and nuggets of minty green variscite. When cut shows a nice strong black matrix and the green is a nice olive to dark green. But the green will run into other shades and even turn a yellow. It has hpure color and with intricate to bold spiderweb pattern. black, orange, and yellow variscite also comes from this mine. They say the vein has not been mined since its reclamation work so as a result this species of Variscite is only becoming more rare.
