Item Description

An uncommon specimen from the Blue Bell Mine, near Zzyzx, California featuring micro blue-green colored crystals of Dioptase on a porous matrix. The drusy/sparkling Dioptase crystals are best seen under magnification, and we've done our best to illustrate their quality in the close-up photos. A small amount of sky-blue Chrysocolla(?) can be seen on the specimen as well. These are not easy to find on the market, and if you're a fan of Dioptase, this is a cool esoteric locality piece to add to your collection.
