Item Description

A rarely seen specimen of dark greenish-brown Mottramite from the famous Pribram District (possibly from the Posepnu vein outcrop). These are rare from Pribram, and are always found in micro examples. We have photographed the piece with a Canon MP-E 65 mm macro lens to better illustrate the quality. This is the only specimen of the material that we've ever had to offer in the auctions, and comes with a classic label from Josef Vajdak / Pequa Rare Minerals, which immediately increases the value.
