Description

Stunning quality gemmy Cuprian Aragonite from Lavrion Greece! Very attractive Aquamarine blue Aragonite crystals! A jewel of a piece! This intense coloration is due to the heavy copper surroundings as the matrix is simply massive Cuprite with small sparkling Azurite and dark green Adamite crystals on it! The matrix is even visible through the Aragonite! Very beautiful specimen of the highest quality
