From the collection of Evan Jones, a gorgeous smithsonite specimen from a mine better known for its purple fluorites. Honestly, this smithsonite easily rivals a fine Kelly Mine one, with the only difference being a shift more towards green from blue. The massed botryoidal forms shimmer like silk, and the fact that they are clustered in isolation on the underlying matrix adds a really pretty "framing" for them.
