Item Description

Boleite is one of the great classics from Mexico. This excellent and aesthetic combination thumbnail features a 6 mm, highly lustrous, indigo-blue, boleite cube with mirror luster faces jauntily set on starkly contrasting green atacamite matrix from the famous 1970s finds by Ed Swoboda and Bill Larson at the historic Amelia Mine at Boleo, Mexico. A classic and choice combination matrix specimen from the Robert Whitmore Collection.. Superb!
