Description

Intense apple green, well developed crystals of Annabergite from the famous locality "KM 3" near Lavrion. This locality got its name because of a marker stone on the old road from Lavrion up to Ag. Konstandinos. This road is nowadays almost disappeared. This locality with its two major sites produced the finest Annabergites. Here you see sharp and lustrous crystals contrastful lining several vugs in brown carbonatic matrix. A super piece probably from the old buried spot. In any case a nice specimen.
