Item Description

This mine has produced what are clearly some of the finest quality Vivianite specimens ever seen. This full sized thumbnail piece features fine quality quality, highly lustrous, rich emerald green, sword shaped "textbook" crystal of Vivianite with minor 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 EXCELLENT shape compared to most I have seen. I have never seen specimens of this quality, color, luster and gemminess before, not only from Bolivia, but virtually any world locality. Valued at $750 in the inventory.
