Item Description

Tangdanite is a very rare recently approved calcium copper arsenate sulfate species that is found in only a few places in the world. This piece is from the lesser known Horny Bartolomej copper mine. It features beautiful blue-green "sprays" of Tangdanite on matrix. Hard to find, and certainly worth picking up for any rarities collector.
