Item Description
A rare specimen of NEW MEXICO vanadinite, and from the famous copper mining area that produces the copper ps azurite floaters, too. I have never seen another one of these.The crystals are brown with a tint of green, olive green perhaps. I would have thought them pyromorphite. The beautiful sparkling druse underneath is descloizite, in burnt umber to blood red coloration!
