A skeletal vuggy specimen created almost entirely of crystallized Bromian Chloraryrite (formerly called Embolite), a silver halide. The Bromian Chloraryrite crystals are greenish-yellow with excellent waxy lustre and range in size and form. The larger crystals measure to a 1 mm in size. Most of the crystals have a pale chocolate brown coating on them, but the crystal shape is still visible. It is accompanied by an old Kranz label and the Freiberg Mining Academy Mineral Dealership, post-1918. This is a very nice display Bromian Chloraryrite from Broken Hill mine.
