Item Description

Attractive, soft sky blue to white colored semi radial groups of Hemimorphite measuring up to 6 mm across on matrix creating an eye-catching overall specimen. From the collection of Harold Urish, and certainly an uncommon specimen based upon the few pieces of this material that I've seen from the 79 Mine. It's a wonderfully bright color piece as opposed to some of the less desirable pieces from this locality. If you're an Arizona collector, or an association collector, don't pass this one up, as it's a fairly unusual Hemimorphite / Aurichalcite for what it is.
