Description

This smithsonite was already an old timer when I bought it for my collection about 10 years ago! It shows fine luster and a cute greenish color. The crystallization is excellent for Lavrion. Damage-wise, the piece is actually a gossan matrix with opened vugs, filled with crystals/botryoids of smithsonite. There is damage on the periphery of the vugs, inevitably.
