Item Description

Beautiful rich teal-blue velvety rosasite botryoids on a striking thick crust line the dramatically sculptural, strikingly vuggy large sturdy limonite matrix on this surreal and colorful specimen from famed Mina Ojuela. Scattered glassy, gemmy calcite rhombs look like jewels on this imposing large piece. A modest bit of rubbing is certainly only a modest detraction to this impressive large and artistic piece. The overall presentation is remarkable. Some of the finest examples of this Cu-Zn carbonate come from this renowned locale.
