Item Description
The Huanuni Mine has produced some of the finest vivianite specimens in the world. This gorgeous, sharply terminated, blocky, gem crystal with a bit of complimentary attached matrix came out in the early 1980"s. The luster is supremely splendent and the interior colors range from rich emerald-green to vivid blue-green, depending on the angle of the light source. An outstanding Huanuni vivianite from the Ed Bancroft Collection.
