Item Description

Veszelyite is a rare phosphate and this fine and showy, multi-hued blue specimen is from the recent 2011 find. Translucent, botryoidal, teal-blue vezelyite richly covers the crust of powder-blue hemimorphite. Beautiful combo from a recent find! The amount of veszelyite on the hemimorphite is far greater, than the 2008 find of this mineral here - from which not many specimens were recovered and now are quite pricey.
