DENTON MINE — OLD-SCHOOL ILLINOIS MAGIC

DENTON MINE — OLD-SCHOOL ILLINOIS MAGIC

They simply don’t make them like this anymore.

A spectacular Fluorite with Chalcopyrite from the legendary Denton Mine, Harris Creek Mining Sub-District, Hardin County, Illinois—loaded with everything that makes vintage Illinois material so addictive.

Deep violet and blue-purple zoning wraps around a glowing golden-yellow interior, creating an almost stained-glass effect when the light hits. The stacked cubic growth, intricate etching and complex surface architecture give this piece incredible character from every angle.

But what really takes it over the top is the history.

Ex. Harris Precht Jr. Collection Originally acquired from Rick Russell in the early 1980s

A survivor from the golden era of Illinois fluorite mining with the color, architecture, associations and old-school provenance collectors dream about.

Illinois royalty. Period.
