Item Description

A classic display specimen of Atacamite from the type locality for the species. This is an older specimen and is loaded with dozens of sparkling, almost wet-looking, rich deep emerald green colored, thin bladed crystals of Atacamite measuring up to 9 mm on matrix. A great, colorful "old time" specimen of this beloved copper hydroxyhalide. Pieces of this size and quality are not easy to find on the market anymore - from the older finds - so don't miss out on this colorful and richly covered specimen.
