Item Description
China has been one of the most productive countries for new material over the last 10 years. The quantity and quality of the finds in China have been remarkable. The finest contemporary green Pyromorphites on the market right now are those from the Daoping mine in China. I was told that the section of the mine that produced these pieces is now closed and will never again produce these superb Pyromorphites. This is a beautiful small cabinet display specimen consisting of sharp, apple green color, hexagonal crystals in radial "sprays" on matrix. A nice piece from this contemporary classic locality. Ex Marty Zinn Collection.
