Item Description

This is a superb and aesthetic Pyromorphite from the now famous Daoping Pb-Zn Mine in China of a style circa the early 2000s. This colorful piece features clusters of bright apple-green, super lustrous Pyromorphite crystals averaging 1 cm in length with amazing color saturation. All of the crystals are lightly striated and the tips on some show discernible hoppered growth! Most of these stunning crystals are clustered at one end of the piece and then cascade down to the other end for great aesthetics. Most of the crystals are in excellent condition and there is minor damage to a few of the crystals that aren't very noticeable due to the sheer number of crystals on the piece. The vibrant green Pyromorphite crystals well with a small patch of white, fine-grained Cerussite and orange-brown, iron-stained matrix. Nice contrast and stunning neon color make this special!
