Item Description

Glorious rich teal-blue bubbly chrysocolla botryoids with supreme waxy luster with strikingly contrasting green botryoids form a dramatically sculptural and colorful specimen from this famous mine. The periphery wear reveals the banding and radial growth of the chryscolla, adding much pizzazz. Specimens of this richness and quality are quite rare from here and this is an outstanding example.
