Item Description
Highly desirable, very rare, translucent, vivid blue, cuprian adamite botryoids to 6 mm are aesthetically scattered on the contrasting gossan matrix on this outstanding piece from the Consie Prince Collection. These turquoise-blue adamites were found once in a small 1988 find at the famous Mina Ojuela. Very, very seldom on the market and you can see why. HIGHLY VALUED by those who seek the rarities from this famous mine, and unique in the world for its color in adamites!
