Item Description

Juicy vivid pink bubbly smithsonite botryoids cover the thin matrix crust on this colorful and highly desirable varietal from this essentialy closed locale. The faded Charles Noll label probably dates to the 1960s or early 70s. See the 2011 Mexico-VI Mineralogical Record Special Issue on this famous locale.
