Item Description

Weird looking, highly unusual oxided-tinted adamite from famed Mina Ojuela. The sculptural vug in sturdy elongated matrix is lined with highly lustrous, greenish-brown spheroids of densely intergrown elongated terminated mimetite crystals. The striking large dominating ball is 2.0 cm and looks just like a reflecting disco ball in any light! The fluorescent neon-green mimetite looks fantastic under UV light, especially the form of the disco ball. The piece looks great from either side.
