Item Description

Vivid and beautiful, kelly-blue, aurichalcite needles line two striking vugs on the very sculptural, sturdy gossan matrix. Glassy, transparent, calcite covers the aurichalcite. There may be some gypsum here as well, but it's hard to tell. A beautiful signature species and combination specimen from this famous locale. Older material from the Consie Prince Collection.
