Description

Very nice specimen composed of a rare type of cuprian Adamite associated with clear translucent Smithsonite! Sparkling tiny Adamite crystals, enriched with rare earth elements which are causing this very attractive turquoise color, cover the majority of the marble matrix and contrast beautifully with the lightly lustrous Smithsonite! Better in person.
