Item Description

Gorgeous, teal-blue, rosasite botryoids in variable sizes richly and aesthetically line a sculptural deep vug in sturdy goethite matrix on this showy and excellent specimen from a New Find at Mina Ojuela. A super accessory are the numerous, water-clear, prismatic, hemimorphite lathes scattered about. They reach 1.2 cm. The sides and back have been sawed to enhance to display quality of this very fine and uncommon, for the find, combination specimen. A colorful and showy example of the combination species from the recent find at this noted locale (found December, 2009).
