Description

Very good and rich conichalcite sample!

Many well formed conichalcite crystals, which in itself is already a rarity, on quartz crystals.

Beautiful under the scope!

The sample came from a group of old mines, virtually unknown and imposible to reach now: they were flooded by the Alqueva reservoir, several meters under the water...
