Item Description

Mina Ojuela has produced a wide variety of mimetite over the years, some of which resembles the famed specimens from San Pedro Corralitos. This striking CABINET specimen features a large, sculptural vug fully lined with translucent, olive-green botryoids dramatic, grape-like clusters on a sturdy, sintered gossan matrix. The old-time piece probably dates to the find of 1968. Ex Mullane Collection, an oldtimer!
