Item Description

Scintillating, starbursts of gorgeous, gemmy, emerald-green acicular, atacamaite crystals are strikingly set on the matrix plate covered with juicy blue-breen botryoids of either chrysocolla or pseudomalachite. This is a very fine and beautiful example of this copper chloride species from this well-known locale, even with the bit of periphery wear. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock.
