Item Description
One of the very few specimens of this hard to find material that I have handled. Several, bright emerald green, thin, hexagonal plates of Torbernite sit atop a cream colored Microcline matrix. Mostly a reference specimen, but certainly a rare specimen based upon the locality. A cool Torbernite specimen from this interesting granite pegmatite in North Carolina.
