Item Description

An incredibly hard to find specimen of the elusive and beautiful Aurichalcites from Tecoma Hill in the Pilot Range of Utha. Brilliant sky blue acicular crystals in radial sprays cover the oxidized matrix. If you collect secondary ore minerals, specimens from Utah or rare locality minerals, don't miss out on this eye-catching miniature. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#10661). Kay is a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see the article in the March-April, 2007 Mineralogical Record and the 50+ page article in the German Magazine "Mineralien Welt" November-December 2017).
