Description

Outstanding specimen with rather big, very sharp dark green cuprian adamite crystals. Even though it shows some damage it is very respectable for its dark sharp crystals - the biggest measuring 0.4 cm (good size for that mineral and locality).

Much better in nature - especially the intense dark green color.
