Item Description

A classic specimen from the famous Ojuela Mine in Mapimi, Mexico featuring several prismatic groups of white Hemimorphite which have a pleasant "dusting" of a reddish oxide (possibly Hematite?) creating a beautiful color combination. The largest Hemimorphite group measures 3.4 cm long. A tiny bit of attached gossan matrix can be seen on the reverse side of the piece. Excellent quality (no real damage that I can see), superb aesthetics, and a true classic from Mexico. Priced at $850 in the inventory.
