Item Description

A nice Aurichalcite specimen from this lesser known Cu-Ag-Pb-Zn-Au-Mn-W-Mo mine in far southern central Arizona. The piece hosts small, light blue-green radiating aggregates of Aurichalcite with associated Calcite on beautifully contrasting matrix. A good reference piece if nothing else. You don't see a lot of specimens from the Omega Mine on the market these days. No damage that I can see with the naked eye.
