Item Description
A sculptural, solid, 360-degree small cabinet of juicy, translucent, lemon-yellow brucite botryoids on this striking and colorful specimen from the 2015 find. The scattered glassy, white patches on both sides of the brucite are probably hydromagnesite. Brucite, Mg-hydroxide, is found in metamorphic rocks and metasediments, in marbles and magnesian skarns. It is very uncommon from Pakistan.
