Item Description

Gorgeous tufts of gemmy, vivid teal-blue, aurichalcite needles richly cover the vuggy, sculptural gossan matrix on this showy and excellent specimen from Mina Ojuela. A couple of radial clusters of gemmy, colorless, hemimorphite blades are a fine accent. More hemimorphite is noted on the back. A beautiful signature species and specimen from this locale. Older material from the 1960s or 70s from the Robert Fender Collection
