Item Description

An artistic combination specimen from a recent find at the famous Mina Ojuela. Pretty teal-blue, botryoidal rosasites are elegantly perched atop the sculptural, sturdy gossan matrix festooned with sparkly tufts of contrasting, rich grass-green, conichalcite microcrystals. The trivial bit of contacting the rosasite is certainly a modest detraction. Excellent combination material from this historic old mine, that just keeps on producing surprisingly fine specimens.
