Abstract
The mineral specimen comes from the Sweet Home Mine, located at Buckskin Gulch near the town of Alma in the Alma mining district, Park County, Colorado. The Mine was opened in 1895 as a silver mine, but was not a successful silver producer. The Mine is better known for its mineral specimens.
