2.3″ Silver n Skutterudite Rare Egg Ontario Canada EG39
If you are looking for rare eggs to add to your collection, here’s a very rare one. It is native silver (silver) and skutterudite (black) and dolomite (white) from the famous silver mines in Cobalt, Ontario, Canada.
The egg is not only rare but also gorgeous.
Silver is not rare but from this locale it is. This is because all silver from this location was mined in the early 1900’s. The other mineral in this egg, scatterudite is rare.
The egg weighs about 9.4oz and it is 2.3″ tall and 1.7″ wide.
The dolomite is white and of high quality. There may also be some cobaltite since in the same general area where this silver was mined, cobaltite was mined as well.
The photos were taken outdoors in some sunlight and in the shade. The pictures in the shade show the silver crystals very nicely but there are unavoidable reflections of other things including myself and my camera as well.
Dale, made this wonderful egg and he did an outstanding job. The egg has a great polish (check the photos taken in the shade).
Origin: Cobalt, Ontario, Canada.

2.3″ Silver Eye Serpentine Egg Australia EG44
This is a gorgeous egg. It is made of serpentine that has almost parallel lines of shiny silver chrysotile.
Chrysotile is asbestos and care should be taken when working with such material. Asbestos is a known carcinogen. I think there is very little risk when the material is finished and polished. However, it is best not to handle it very much.
The egg is expertly made and the chrysotile pattern (and its contrast with the green serpentine) is very pleasing to the eye.
It is 2.3″ tall (58.4mm) and 1.7″ wide. It weighs about 5.45oz.
Origin: Brazil.
