These are just some of the pieces of Psilomelane we have for sale, rough and unpolished. All our supply is from old stock collections. Psilomelane is basically a Manganese-Oxide, it takes a beautiful polish (though messy to cut), resulting in wonderful pieces when there are line patterns or bulls-eyes in it. We charge one shipping cost for all that will safely fit in a Small Priority Flat Rate box or padded envelope and will ship to the U.S. as well as Internationally. See our Store Policies for full details.

Psilomelane Slab

Psilomelane Slab Probably from Blythe Area

This is an unpolished slab of Psilomelane with some neat patterns in it. It was most likely collected from an area near Blythe, California. It is not the same quality as the material that came from the Crown of Silver Mine in Mexico. Larger pieces we have of this material have often broken into smaller pieces. This smaller piece feels pretty stable, but there is a possible fracture line on one side; still room for one or more neat cabs though. Note that if buyer has a problem, just let us know, we offer 100% satisfaction guarantee, just reach out and we will help you. It weighs 72.5 grams, or 2.6 ozs, and measures apx 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" triangularly, and 8 mm thick.

Psilomelane Rough

7.3 lb Psilomelane Rough Probably from South-Eastern Mojave Desert ($9.50/lb)

This is a piece of rough Psilomelane, most likely collected in the area not far from Blythe / Wiley's Well, California. It has been sliced on the two ends. It is not as quality as the material found in Mexico, but still looks like some nice potential. There are some fractures to contend with, plus areas of matrix mixed in. It measures about 6" x 3 1/2" and about 2" wide on the smallest sliced end and up to 3 3/4" wide on the other. Total weight is 7 lbs 3 ounces. Please note that cutting this material makes one's saw oil black. (When Ed cuts psilomelane, he usually has done so near time to replace or clean the oil.)

Psilomelane Rough

4 lb Psilomelane Rough from South-Eastern Mojave Desert ($9.50/lb)

This is another piece of rough Psilomelane, probably collected in the area not far from Blythe / Wiley's Well, California. It was sliced length-wise as well as on both ends. There are some neat patterns in it, especially visible in the length-wise photos. It measures slightly under 6" x 1 3/4 to 2 1/2" wide x 1 5/8 to 2 1/2" on the sliced ends. Total weight is 4 lbs. As noted in #5360 above, there are some fractures to contend with and areas of matrix in the mix. Cutting this material makes the saw oil messy, turns it black, so one might plan to cut it close to time to clean out old oil.
