Smithsonite

Item Description

Berg Aukus is one of the most famous Smithsonite localities in the world, and truly does not get the recognition is deserves. I have seen a wide variety of habits and colors of Smithsonites from this great locality, and this piece is no exception. It features a few sharp, gemmy, vitreous, beautiful soft golden color modified rhombohedra of Smithsonite measuring up to 2.6 cm sitting matrix. The quality is excellent, despite the fact that one of the crystals is clevaed. Good Smithsonites from Berg Aukus are among the most desirable for the locality. Valued at $600.
