Item Description
This mine has produced what are clearly some of the finest quality Vivianite specimens ever seen. This piece features good quality, lustrous, gemmy, emerald green, sword shaped crystals of Vivianite on metamorphosed Sandstone. These are some of the best quality Vivianite crystals you will see from any locality, hands down. Keep in mind that over 75% of the specimens from this find have had SERIOUS damage problems. This piece is in very good shape and is one of the better specimen I've offered from the find. Rarely does one see specimens of this quality, color, luster and gemminess not only from Bolivia, but virtually any world locality.
