Item Description
Vibrant, glassy, powder-blue aurichalcite richly and beautifully covers one side of the banded gossan matrix on this gorgeous, older, CABINET combination specimen from the historic Mina Ojuela. The aurichalcite on the front is nicely accented with sparkling, glassy, disclike calcite crystals. The old label with it thought these were gypsum and hemimorphite crystals, they are so bright. Excellent and very showy combination material from the Consie Prince Collection.
