Candelaria Mine Pseudomorphs



Here are some excelent examples of Candelaria mine Pseudomorphs.The only Psuedomorph formation found at the Candelaria so far has been the clams.The Candelaria mine has produced many of these but few are what would be called gem grade.Some mines produce a volume of forms and grades of turquoise. Some mines only produce just a few but are a high grade.Here are a couple of the high grade clams from this mine.
