Item Description
A very aesthetic pyromorphite plate from recent finds at the famous Daoping Mine of China. Juicy, apple-green prisms to 1.3 cm with hoppered terminations line the slightly mounded crest of the plate. Smaller, more tapered crystals surround the large crystals on both sides and really set the larger crystals off. The little stellate spray of tapered crystals is a realy attention grabber, even with a few broken crystals. All of the large pyros are pristine and the rest of the plate is in great shape. A fine color and quality varietal from this noted locale
