Item Description

Bright green botyroids of conichalcite richly encrust both sides of the matrix crust on this showy and excellent example from the historic mines at Laurium. A cluster of radial sprays of glassy, acicular aragonite crystals on the backside is a nice accent. Highly representative and fairly uncommon combination material from this locale.
