A fine Siegerland classic features numerous sprays of intense green crystals of Malachite in a vug in typically matrix. The Malachite is well developed, highly lustrous, transparent and almost superb terminated. The Friedrich Mine was under construction from 1803 to 1953. Consequently good specimens from there are almost historic and also wanted.
