Description

You are bidding on a small thumbnail sized specimen with a vug on top hosting some nice crystals of hureaulite. The label indicates that the specimen is from Kobokobo but I have suspicion it is from Sandamab instead. Either way a nice specimen of one of my own personal favorite minerals.
