Item Description
This is the only piece of this material that I've seen from Hezhou, and it's somewhat reminiscent of the classic specimens from the Mission Mine in Arizona. This toenail sized specimen features a WATER-CLEAR, completely colorless crystal of Gypsum (var: Selenite) which plays host to attractive, bright, arborescent inclusions of Native Copper. The Copper is best seen under magnification, but it's beautiful up close. From the collection of Shields Flynn.
