Description: Linarite Locality: Darwin, Darwin District, Inyo County, California, USA (Locality at mindat.org) Size: 6.8 x 5.2 x 2.8 cm. Linarite (Lead Copper Sulfate Hydroxide) is rare from anywhere. They are probably best-known from the Blanchard Mine in New Mexico, but from time to time, you still see an even rare California specimen turn up on the market. This is a very shallow pocket full of gemmy crystals of an intense cobalt blue. The pocket measures 3 cm in length.
