Item Description

A striking and excellent Mina Ojuela adamite and calcite specimen. The vug on the front of the two-sided limonite rib is beautifully sprinkled with sparkly jewel-like clusters of gemmy sea-green adamite crystals and glassy, colorless dogtooth calcite scalenohedrons. The vug on the back is another story, being nearly totally covered with clusters of glassy calcite dogteeth! This is very fine and aesthetic Ojuela combination material. The adamite color, crystal form and isolation is unusual and very fine. Valued at $400-500.
