Item Description
This is a nice little specimen of this remarkably rare iron phosphate consisting of wonderful, sharp, translucent, lustrous, deep green, layered crystal groups of Ludlamite with minor crystallized tan Siderite crysatls. There are truly about 5 localities in the world the produce fine crystallized Ludlamite specimens, and ALL of them, except for Huanuni and now defunct. PLEASE NOTE: There have been no more of these specimens found since around 2002 from this locality, and it is a possibility there will never be any more, so don't miss out on a very good quality piece from a classic Bolivian locality.
