• If you are looking for rare spheres to add to your collection, here's a very rare one. It is native silver in matrix from the famous silver mines in Cobalt, Ontario.
• Silver is not rare but from this locale it is. This is because, I understand, all silver was mined in the early 1900's. The pinkish matrix, which is full of silver specs, I was told is dolomite. Under the black light the matrix is not fluorescent but it has pockets of red which is most likely calcite (dolomite and calcite are very similar).
• The spheremaker, Dale, made this wonderful native silver sphere and he did an excellent job. The sphere has a geat polish (check the photos taken in the shade).
• This native silver in matrix sphere, is very rare and a great collector's item.
• The approximate weight of this silver and dolomite ball is 8 oz , and it measures about 1.96" in diameter (50mm).
• Please note that there are many more photos of this sphere following the description. The photos were taken outdoors in sunlight and from different angles and therefore, color differences from the actual sphere are possible.
