Item Description
A beautiful bright green Cuprian Adamite specimen from the historic Ojuela mine in Mexico. The piece is in great condition overall, and features a very eye-catching, undamaged, rather lustrous, translucent, rarely seen "pinwheel" on gossan matrix. This mine is well known for its amazingly intense colors of Adamite, and this thumbnail is certainly a great example of said material. A beautiful display specimen from one of the most well known localities in Mexico. Valued at $600 in the inventory.
