Item Description
Tyrolite is an uncommon secondary copper arsenate found in the oxidized zone of copper deposits. Radial sprays of lustrous, very pretty turquoise-blue tyrolite lathes richly and attractively cover the matrix plate on this very showy and highly representative specimen from the less well-known Novoveska Huta Mine of Slovakia. Ex Wes Parker Collection.
