CERUSSITE Mineral Hill, Wakefield, NH 0.5 mm clear cerussite crystal	Species: CERUSSITE Locality: Mineral Hill, Wakefield, NH Specimen Size: 0.5 mm clear cerussite crystal Field Collected: Gene Bearss (2011) Catalog No.: A Gene Bearss collection specimen Notes: Identification by Gene Bearss.
CERUSSITE Mineral Hill, Wakefield, NH 1 mm hexagonaal bipyramid cerussite crystal with second crystal on basal termination.	Species: CERUSSITE Locality: Mineral Hill, Wakefield, NH Specimen Size: 1 mm hexagonaal bipyramid cerussite crystal with second crystal on basal termination. Field Collected: Gene Bearss (2008) Catalog No.: A Gene Bearss collection specimen Notes:
CERUSSITE Mineral Hill, Wakefield, NH 5 mm fov - cluster of milky, prismatic, cerussite crystals	Species: CERUSSITE Locality: Mineral Hill, Wakefield, NH Specimen Size: 5 mm fov - cluster of milky, prismatic, cerussite crystals Field Collected: Gene Bearss (2011) Catalog No.: A Gene Bearss collection specimen Notes:
CERUSSITE Mineral Hill, Wakefield, NH 1.5 mm prismatic cerussite crystal with steep pyramid termination	Species: CERUSSITE Locality: Mineral Hill, Wakefield, NH Specimen Size: 1.5 mm prismatic cerussite crystal with steep pyramid termination Field Collected: Gene Bearss (2011) Catalog No.: A Gene Bearss collection specimen Notes:
CERUSSITE Mineral Hill, Wakefield, NH 1 mm hexagonal, prismatic, crystal	Species: CERUSSITE Locality: Mineral Hill, Wakefield, NH Specimen Size: 1 mm hexagonal, prismatic, crystal Field Collected: A Gene Bearss collection specimen Catalog No.: Notes: There are actually a pair of parallel hexagonal cerrusite crystals here. But from this view, the rear crystal is obscured. This extreme prismatic form is unusual for the Mineral Hill locality. Gene was uncertain of the species identity, so it was analyzed. The EDS analysis indicated the species was cerussite. (The vertical lines on the plot are Pb markers. Elements lighter than Na do not show on plot).
CERUSSITE Palermo Mine, N. Groton, NH 3 mm field of view - indistinct cerussite crystals	Species: CERUSSITE Locality: Palermo Mine, N. Groton, NH Specimen Size: 3 mm field of view - indistinct cerussite crystals Field Collected: Bob Whitmore (found in tub of Palermo "rocks" gifted by Bob) Catalog No.: 2004 - cataloged as a galena specimen - as this is the principal mineral present. Notes: Not tested - intimate association with galena makes cerussite the most likely species. Cerussite is reported from Palermo.
CERUSSITE Johnson Rd., Bow, NH 1.4 mm cerussite crystal	Species: CERUSSITE Locality: Johnson Rd., Bow, NH Specimen Size: 1.4 mm cerussite crystal Field Collected: 2016 Catalog No.: u2132 Notes:
CERUSSITE Johnson Rd., Bow, NH 1 mm cerussite "V" twin	Species: CERUSSITE Locality: Johnson Rd., Bow, NH Specimen Size: 1 mm cerussite "V" twin Field Collected: 2016 Catalog No.: u2082 Notes:
CERUSSITE Johnson Rd., Bow, NH Pair of oxide coated, 0.8 mm, cerussite crystals	Species: CERUSSITE Locality: Johnson Rd., Bow, NH Specimen Size: Pair of oxide coated, 0.8 mm, cerussite crystals Field Collected: 2016 Catalog No.: u2137 Notes: Several cerussite habits are present at this Bow locality, including this steep termination variety. Stack of 30 images with Nikon Plan 10 objective and Canon G9 camera.
CERUSSITE Johnson Rd., Bow, NH 2.5 mm field of view	Species: CERUSSITE Locality: Johnson Rd., Bow, NH Specimen Size: 2.5 mm field of view Field Collected: 2016 Catalog No.: u2159 Notes: Several cerussite habits are present at this Bow locality, including this stubby prismatic habit. Stack of 18 images with Meiji scope and Canon G9 camera.
