Item Description

Wavy, curving crystals of brucite, with intense blue color - very rare for the species and classic for this mine! This is a superb, robust example, with great display aesthetics. Crystallized brucite is actually quite rare, known from just a handful of localities. For my taste, these are the prettiest for sheer color. This large specimen is display-worthy, even for a "rarity." Valued $1200-1500
