Item Description

A fine quality example of the famous, classic Annabergite specimens from Lavrion, Greece. This piece hosts beautiful, electric green color, radial sprays of Annabergite measuring a few mm across, composed of thin, monoclinic blades, sitting on matrix. The Annabergite crystals are best seen with magnification, and look beautiful up close. For reference, Annabergite is the nickel analogue of Erythrite, and the nickel content is what gives the species that vivid green color. From the collection of Vasco Trancoso, a medical doctor and prominent mineral collector from near Lisbon, Portugal (https://www.mindat.org/user-11954.html). He assembled his mineral collection over the course of 60 years, and built a fine worldwide display collection that we recently purchased. This piece is pictured on mindat.org at https://www.mindat.org/photo-183396.html.
