Item Description

Colorful and attractive combination piece from the well-known 79 Mine in Arizona. The dominant mineral is sky-blue, botryoidal Hemimorphite that is both transclucent and lustrous. Imbedded within the Hemimorphite are blades of golden Wulfenite. There is even one 9 mm Wulfenite crystal that is mostly exposed, highlighting the lovely contrast in color and form between the the two minerals. The aesthetics of this small cabinet piece are quite good, and I've not seen many pieces of this particular combination from 79.
