Item Description

Agardite is a rare hydrated REE-Cu-arsenate. The sculptural, vuggy limonite crust is richly peppered with colorful tufts of pretty, tiny turquoise-blue agardite needles against starkly contrasting gray-brown goethite botryoids. Showy and excellent combination material from recent finds at this well-known Lavrion mine.
