Item Description
The gorgeous, bubbly, botryoidal, teal-blue rosasite looks like solidified molten plastic on this striking LARGE CABINET specimen from the recent new find at Mina Ojuela. The sculptural, very vuggy sturdy gossan matrix hosts numerous vugs and even a cave-like tube lined with very complimentary pretty green, conichalcite microcrystals. The vuggy back hosts pockets of glassy calcite rhombs. Beautiful. We received few specimens of this impressive large size in the lot.
