Item Description

A wonderful cabinet sized example of the famous Hemimorphites from the Ojuela Mine in Mapimi, Mexico. This classic specimen features a few "pinwheel" or "fan"-shaped groups comprising lustrous, white Hemimorphite crystals along with many smaller gemmy colorless individual crystals sitting atop reddish-brown oxidized matrix creating a beautiful color combination. The largest Hemimorphite group measures 3.1 cm long. Excellent quality (no real damage that I can see), good aesthetics, and a true classic from Mexico. Priced at $950 in the inventory.
