Adamite (fluorescent! - classic material)

Item Description

Glorious vivid yellow-green, glassy, translucent elongated adamite crystals with textbook chisel terminations are densely intergrown on this dramatic, sculptural and colorful small cabinet from famed Mina Ojuela. The stunning adamite knob on the sturdy gossan matrix is a superlative accent to this color on the adamite. It is nearly pristine - A small bit of periphery wear certainly has only minimal impact to the overall high quality of this piece. It has simply surreal neon-green fluorescence.

A choice, aesthetic and colorful example of the species in this size range, from the classic old finds at Ojuela. These have not been foudn in such quality in over 30 years. It is also, of a top quality for the crystallization and color and stands out from the crowd. Valued $1000-1200
