Fine, greenish-yellow Adamite highlights this small-cabinet specimen from the Christiana Mine in Lavrion. This lustrous and translucent pinwheel, 1.7 cm across, forms a virtual 'cave entrance', and it rests perfectly on a snowy field of white, sparkly, microcrystalline Calcite. Excellent, neon-green fluorescence that enhances the arch-like appearance even more. This is a good example from the well-known 2017 find.
