Item Description

Veszelyite is a very rare hydrated copper zinc phosphate, and good crystals are only found in few places in the world. Recently there have been some supremely fine quality specimens coming out of China, with crystals as such, lustrous and well-formed as you will see from anywhere. These veszelyite crystals are on a quartz cluster that makes this piece more desirable. Veszelyite with quartz specimens were very limited find, and many of them were ruined by acid because dealer did not know this is a rare mineral and they only wanted the quartz. Ex. Jingnan (Tom) Zhang Coll.
