Item Description

Densely intergrown velvety, bubbly green mottramite botryoids form a sculptural and rich mounded specimen. Some of the botryoids have a light iron oxide coating. These are from the late 2011 find at this renowned mine. Mottramite was previously unknown from here. These were a major hit at the 2012 Tucson Show. Showy, rich and excellent mottramite.
