Item Description

A lovely Rosasite specimen from the famous Ojuela Mine. The piece is filled with velvety blue-green radiating aggregates of Rosasite which are coated by colorless Calcite sitting on gossan matrix. The largest Calcite measures 6 mm. The piece displays well and the color combo is truly echanting. Minor peripheral roughness is present where the piece was removed from the pocket wall, but still a good example of this attractive material.
