Item Description
A classic, showy and very rich example of bubbly, botryoidal, translucent, wet-look, light gray smithsonite from the famed Broken Hill deposit. High quality and rich material from the Kintore Opencut. It reminds me of fine Kelly smithsonite in juicy luster. Ex Dave Bristol Collection and valued at $400. Much better in person.
