The top side of this matrix is attractively covered by glistening light blue crystallized botryoidal hemimorphite. Small sparkling crystals of micro calcite are scattered throughout. This is in good condition. The specimen comes with a previous label from the collection of Ray DeMark.Santa Eulalia is a historic mining town located just east of Chihuahua City in Mexico. Founded during the Spanish colonial era in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, the settlement grew around one of the richest silver, lead, and zinc deposit districts in North America. The tremendous wealth generated by its mines helped finance the construction of the grand Chihuahua Cathedral and drove the early economic development of the region. Today, it remains renowned among historians and mineral collectors alike for its deep underground workings and rich heritage.
