Description

Elegant and rich miniature of dark green cuprian adamite on typical oxidised marble-schist matrix. Crystals are very lustrous and in excellent conditions, aggregated as 3D rounded asterisks and with very good transparency. Exceptional quality, only a few minor contacts.

One of the most classic localities for gossan and As-rich minerals.
Self-collected a few years ago from a small pocket.

Straight out of my Lavrion suite.
