Description

It is the every first time for me that I see this unique from of pink smithsonite from Berg Aukas mine, the gemmy crystals are frosted over and only reveal their inner quality through no more than two clean faces out of the numerous that they possess.

The color intensifies dramatically through these clear windows and the crystal form is unknown to me, indescribable.

The pyrite matrix is a good contrast to the colorful cobaltoan smithsonite. There are minor imperfections and obvious attachment related contacts to the periphery.
