Item Description

Smithsonite specimens of this richness and quality are uncommon from the famous Mina Ojuela. Spherical aggregates of tiny, juicy, yellow-green, smithsonite blades blanket the sculptural gossan matrix and are very nicely accented with a scattering of glassy, colorless calcite rhombs. Choice older and excellent large combination material from the Bob Trimingham Collection.
