Aurichalcite in Calcite (NEW Find)

Item Description

The famous Mina Ojuela has produced a NEW find of this beautiful and striking combination material. Glassy, transparent, calcite rhombs to 1.5 cm across are richly included with gorgeous robins egg-blue aurichalcite. The rhombs are aesthetically strewn in a sculpural vug on starkly contrasting, sturdy, gossan matrix. There are also freestanding sprays of beautiful aurichalcite needles. Most of the calcite rhombs are included with aurichalcite and some are not, which really adds to the attractiveness of this fine piece. The dramatic, overall quality of this piece is very minimally impacted by the periphery wear around the edges of the vug. A stunning new find. This is a last specimen we had from buying much of the pocket, a trim off a larger piece. Similar pieces have sold (and resold to dealers) for $500-750
